118: Needing Sleep

Don’t mess with me
I’m feeling mean
Don’t want to control my temper
I’m just about to scream.

All the noise you’re making
Grates inside my head
You’re outside my bedroom window
And I am seeing red.

It’s been the best day and the worst
Now I just need to sleep
So shut the fuck up you idiot
You’re waking up the street.

It’s 1.30 in the morning
It’s the middle of the week
You’re so damned inconsiderate
It’s really hard to believe.

While we drag ourselves to work
You’ll be lying your bed
Then in a peaceful house you’ll slumber
Not a worry in your head.

So yes I’m feeling angry
Yes I’m feeling mean
Because you’re not some unknown neighbour
And no this isn’t a dream.
