24 in 24 – Hour 20
LULLABY FOR EXISTENTIAL SWEATS IN THE PREDAWN
Bear down upon me
Circle me round
When the clock ticks
The heartbeats will pound
When the clock strikes
At four in the morn
Who’ll be there to catch you
And wrap you up warm?
Don’t fall asleep, baby
Don’t call it quits
Don’t close your eyes, baby
‘Cause that’s when time hits
Takes little bits of you
It won’t ever stop
Stay strong when you say it:
“I won’t fear the clock”
