Today, Today

Today, Today, Today, and Not Another Day

Today is the day I sleep, today, today, and not another day

When the sun rises I will sleep

I will succumb to the sirens sweep

And I will snooze on the pillow

Today, today, today, and not the next day;

For I am awake all day, soon I will sleep all the day

All day, all day, to sleep, so a dream may fly me away;

Today is the day I try, today, today, and not another day

When I feel like I might lie

On the nearest stop by, and try

And try, but tried eyes loosen and narrow

Shut, and the wind whisk my efforts away

Take me away, all day, till next day, I may never convince myself to try anyway;
