The
obnoxious alarm starts a new day
Behind
closed eyelids I let out a groan
The
beeps and buzzes take my dreams away
As
if those fantasies were just a loan
Dancing
ponies flee my unconscious mind
So
does investigating a dark crime
I
wish that this clock were not so unkind
It
is like a tangy and bitter lime
But
though this alarm clock takes dreams from me
Without
it I would not feel the Sun’s rays
It
awakens me to reality
Even
better than sleep are happy days
I
smile at knowing that this is true
Because
when I’m awake I can love you
