Sixteen hours sitting down
and we have almost reached our goal
through half eyes and dull drumming thrumming
driving through my mind, driving through the town,
driving though my soul, driving down the road
through half lids i see ghastly ghostly aquatic
fields, houses, lights, bushes all gliding past
Under an ocean of blue shadows and light
a moon of blue shadows and light
a gate of blue shadows and light
a house of blue shadows and light
a sky of blue shadows and light
Sixteen hours sitting down
and we have reached our goal
