Sit here
With your bag of dreams
The bus to tomorrow has not yet come
If you like
You can begin the walk
If it stops to pick you
Then
Or else
you take longer
With a bag of so much
Don't think of the heat of the burning sun
There is water in the course of the sojourn
The bus to tomorrow has yet to come
In the distance, you should see its form
Its slow chug making you to breathe fast
Does not mean that it moves to meet the beat
Sit here
With your bag of dreams
The bus to tomorrow has not yet come
If you like
you can begin to walk
If it stops to pick you
Then
Or else
you take longer
With a bag of so much
Hahahahahahahahahaha
Hahahahahahahahahaha
I must laugh, the story is riddled with mirth.
You cannot return, The words were flung at you
With your bag of so much, telling you to take your foolish dreams
And leave the simplicity of their unimaginative peace
You spat your goodbye, you refused to cry
You have no time, you must catch your ride
So you hurried and hurried to the station
Where the dust had cloaked with a blanket so brown
Only to find that the bus was no where around
Sit here
With your bag of dreams
The bus to tomorrow is yet to come
If you like
you can begin to walk
If it stops to pick you
Then
Or else
you take longer
With a bag of so much
They can come up to you
And offer you a lift
Faster they will get there
and faster they will split
It is hot I know, but the cool they offer is not so
The ride so fast, it brings vomit up and out
Do you even arrive?
And how do you pay for this ride so fast that they offer?
Me thinks they have seen your bag of dreams
And that is why they know that you need to get somewhere
And that you must have been waiting awhile.
Sit here, joo
With your bag of dreams
The bus to tomorrow has not yet come
If you like
You can begin to walk
If it stops to pick you
Then
Or else
you take longer
With your bag of so much
Sit here
With your bag of dreams
Sit here
I will sit with you
I too, have my bag of dreams
The bus to tomorrow will soon come
Sit here
