A million dreams sound beautiful,
poetic, hopeful.
But have you ever had a million thoughts
racing through your mind at the same time?
Because it’s actually a fucking disaster.
Forget about dreaming about
the world we’re gonna make.
I just wonder about this bed I’m supposed to make
and how the idea is just entirely overwhelming
in the grand scheme of things
when I can’t even get out of it
because I’ve already thought of 8 different ways
I’m going to end up in prison
for not wiping the germs off
of a damn toy car often enough.
and that’s just the last minute.
So trust me:
A million of something is keeping me awake
but I don’t think they’re dreams.
