The alarm clock is ringing
There is no time for breakfast
Just a coffee to get the machine rolling
The cigarette vapor throws a fog behind me
On my way to the next coffeeshop
People pass by like shadows
As if I was not awake yet
I have to wake up quickly
To start my day yet
And when I sleep
The daily nightmare is over
Still waters run deep
But they are lonely and cold all over
At work I go to the coffee machine
I always keep my change
When I am pausing, depends on an empty cup
Intoxicated, people and the day pass by
Until I find myself with a beer in my hand in the living room
