Written in the summer of 2005, re-recorded a couple of years later

lyrics

My alarm lost its effect back in 1999,
at the edge of my bed…I can't recall the time
I downed the pills, opened the door,
It's not so easy to ignore
I grew my hair out, wrote a song
A sort of summer sing-along
Sing along…

Took the car down to the beach to see if people were around
Took the hill under the bridge and ended up downtown
I saw the children on their bicycles, just trying to cross the street
I guess it's funny just to think that they'll end up like me
Just like me…

Good morning sunset
And goodnight sunrise
I would wake up if I could open my eyes
And the AC is up, but the windows are down
So stop me if I speak too loud

Tell me, please
How did this begin?
How did I get in this mess I'm in?
I finally feel alright right where I am
Where did it start, and where did it begin?

I spent the first night on the floor
Of her apartment, she's got her things in cardboard boxes
And I'm just taking up spare space
The noisy crowds down Caroline and Broadway late at night
A sense of consciousness past 3 made me feel alright
I feel alright…

Good morning sunset
And goodnight sunrise
The lights in the vents have attracted my eyes…
