Awake Without Chessi
March 14, 2016
Mighty late the clock ticks
Counting every second
my eyes aren't closed
And Chessi hasn't lulled me to sleep
Chessi I need you
But pleads are nothing
The darkness is my queen
And the cat is her fool
My headphones whisper in my ear
Telling me to ask Alice
To follow them down the rabbit hole
And Chessi hasn't lulled me to sleep
Chessi I need you
But pleads are nothing
The darkness is my queen
And there is only a head
Wonderland is locked
There is no key
I have drank the wine
And Chessi hasn't lulled me to sleep
Chessi I need you
But pleads are nothing
The darkness is me
And she has been gone
Chessi I need you
For I am awake without you
