The Graveyard Shift
For how long will I stay dead
The first time was lucid
the third time was candid
from my remorse did I fed
The light has forsaken Mr
the night has slept with me as it deem
the second time was picture perfect
the fourth time was without any effect
Today's toxin was grey, like the color of my hair
the last poison was blue, like an old country fair
the fifth was better, without any impair
the sixth I tell you, will be my very air.
