Calling Up The Sun

Night is my time to sleep and dream of the worse, and

The morning is when I awake from the nightmares that kept me scared,

Wake the morning quick! I cannot sleep with this beast,

And I shout in my dreams and I couldn't open my eyes to see!

Wake the morning up!

I shouted out loud to let the sun know

I needed its light more than it can show.

I leap off the edge out of the darkness and fall into the twilight zone

Waiting for the sun to fall into my face.

I rise from my slumber and count my deaths in various numbers

Keeping count of the nightmares that kept me from calling out the.... sun.

Grandma is Sleeping

My brothers please don't cry,
It's just grandma sleeping in her comfy box.
She is rested so don't be arrested in your own sorrows,
She'll be in our dreams and walk behind our shadows,
and shine in the sun tomorrow.
When our day comes we'll be sleeping in our own boxes too
and be with our relatives who slept pass through.
So don't worry, Grandma is just sleeping and don't bother her. =)
