it's 5am your up all night again
i wake up in an unfamiliar bed i ran to
to escape you
my teacup is cold
my coffee pot ran empty a long time ago
and my newspaper tells of stories old
i can't tell you how long I've been sitting here
i cant tell you about the love i use to know
I'm at the fork in the road
an old path i know i must take again
the path of quiet times
peace and sometimes loneliness
but silence is better then this
fighting and screaming obscenities
like a trucker dyke you say
but i say I'm guarded like a prison queen
I've got the best security don't i?
I've gone back and forth with old flames
and one that never really went out
just comfort in knowing you
and you knowing me
at my worst and my best
