Daylight Savings Time

September's end is on its way

And I am still in sandals

And it's getting hard to concentrate

From all the poor decision making

And daylight savings time

Is nipping at my ankles

When the sun goes down at 4 o'clock

I'll miss the way it lit my whole world up

And I'll sleep it away

And let the winter turn to morning

And I'll drain all the ice from the creek

And I'm frozen but I'm coping

Go to bed if I get lonely and I'll

Sleep it away

It's nearly Valentines

And I am still in shambles

And it's getting hard to compensate

For all the sick days I've been taking

And daylight savings time

Will throw me off my handle

When the sun comes up it's obvious

That I'm not the man I thought that I once was

So I'll sleep it away

To stop the spring from all her warming

And I'll sweat like a kid in my sheets

And I'm coping, though I'm older

Still too young to be so lonely

And I'll sleep it away

Sit me down

And thaw me out

And watch me ricochet inside myself

Sit me down

And thaw me out

And watch me spiral out

And I'll sleep it away

And let the winter turn to morning

And I'll drain all the ice from the creek

And I'm frozen but I'm coping

Go to bed when I get lonely

And I'll Sleep it away

And I'll sleep it away

To stop the spring from all her warming

And I'll sweat like a kid in my sheets

And I'm coping, though I'm older

Still too young to be so lonely

And I'll sleep it away
