A Man Wakes Up
When he opens his eyes
He doesn't recognize a thing
A Man Wakes Up
Colors hurt his eyes
Voices that surround him like knives
Too hard too close
Too shiny gets up in his face
He gets up and he walks around
His limbs make an unfamiliar rhythm
He turns into words
The words into architecture
Buildings that grin at him like giant clowns
He opens his mouth to speak but nothing comes out
Only colors that fall to the ground
Broken bottles that crack beneath his feet
Snap like frozen chocolate
Tastes as sweet through soles of shoes
A Man Wakes Up
A Man Wakes Up
He turns into a beach
Thin and white and gold
The waves he rode in
Drive him back into the dunes
Whose heads adorned with grasses sway
In a gentle salty breeze all day
When he opens his eyes
He doesn't recognize a thing
A Man Wakes Up
Colors hurt his eyes
Voices that surround him like knives
Too hard too close
Too shiny gets up in his face
He gets up and he walks around
His limbs make an unfamiliar rhythm
He turns into words
The words into architecture
Buildings that grin at him like giant clowns
He opens his mouth to speak but nothing comes out
Only colors that fall to the ground
Broken bottles that crack beneath his feet
Snap like frozen chocolate
Tastes as sweet through soles of shoes
A Man Wakes Up
A Man Wakes Up
He turns into a beach
Thin and white and gold
The waves he rode in
Drive him back into the dunes
Whose heads adorned with grasses sway
In a gentle salty breeze all day
