Lubna Hazeem - P.S

You thought it was too early to wake up
When everyone was right on thier setup
Oh, too early to get well dressed
Too early to have a nice breakfast
It was 10: 00 in the morning
As the cats meowed from across the street
And woke you up in your shuddered sleep
I left a note on the top of your shelf
Oh, where you wouldn't forget yourself
But you do, for the things i meant for you
To forget the words that i gave you
Oh, you forgot the words i gave you

Now you're feeding them lonely cats
Giving away the bits that you have
Because you forgot the words at the bottom of the page
Oh, you forgot the words that caused this change
You forgot my p.s
I left with unnecessary pieces
You forgot about my advice
The one i gave you last night
You forgot my p.s
With love, now regret....

Withdrawn from silence
You cry for a concsious
That's neither hollowed nor darkened
Just a little bit more sorted
Awakened from our slumber
We stand aligned in numbers
This life is not getting any younger
Time's racing like a speeding thunder

Oh, have we forgotten ourselves
As we answer in three questions
I throw out of heartfelt suggestions
Where, when and why?
Are we trying to complicate our lives?
My back feel so sore with all of the knives
Time keeps throwing against my spine
Oh, im spinning out of my mind
Not everything makes sense when it rhymes
I still have trouble sleeping at night
Thinking about all of my artificial skies
All this fuss, creation of orders
All this plus, creation of borders
Even with all of this as clear as light
I still think it's as messy as this life
Oh, it's just as tricky as this life now....
