4AM - Hail Mary Mallon

It’s 4AM

It’s 4AM

It’s 4AM

It.

it.

it.

it…

It’s 4AM

It’s 4AM

It’s 4AM

It.

it.

it.

it…

4AM, short of breath

Patient zero, hoarding pets

Drinking his omelet

Timing his meds

Morphine drip

Get a fix to the flesh

Gripping the edge of the ledge

Of the place where he gets to be met

With the end of the day

Left of the face is a table, a tray

TV Guide with the guy from The Fray

Or maybe it’s Clay

Anarchy’s son

Regardless

The farewell party’s begun

Party of one

You start in the breach

Birthing a burden

Shouldering me

In tonight

The rest of the rat fam

Round and round

Like the death of a Pacman

Life of a salesman

Hiding his text

John Wayne couldn’t even stand

The rein of my ex

Later I’ll just

Go with phone tag

'Til the court tells me «Sure»

Now I rode the broke back

Hold the stoge pack

Get with the fall

With the beehive hair

And the rest on his bald

Head held high

Family, no joke

Grown folk broke

At the antique roadshow

Can’t breathe right

In his nose it bleeds

In his wing, they singing ring

Around the rosary

It’s 4AM

It’s 4AM

It’s 4AM

It.

it.

it.

it…

It’s 4AM

It’s 4AM

It’s 4AM

It.

it.

it.

it…

It’s 4AM, pouring sweat

Patient zero, courting death

Use your illusion

And move

As a wounded gazelle

On a moonlit

Future in hell

I’m a loser

Room with a view

To a stupor

No real room

To acutely maneuver

A shoe

Nevermind two

In a sequence

He get down

To the root of the defect

Peep

Cruel is a pool full of deep ends

Prove an immovable defense

You in the beautiful breach

Unusually moody

And losing the beach head

Rats in the wall

Tap out drums

An amassing of non-retractable claws

This old man

He play actual odds

On these detachable jaws

Not for the fango

Moshing the pain

Cold dime in the day

By impossible day

Frog town creep

In a sensible car

No caution

And arrived he

A sense of tomorrow

Spit shake

Might steak or break the right

Nicely

Or instigate tonight’s crises

Sample the you scream, I scream

Break if his eyes go widescreen

It’s 4AM

It’s 4AM

It’s 4AM

It.

it.

it.

it…

It’s 4AM

It’s 4AM

It’s 4AM

It.

it.

it.
