9:30 Lyrics

It's overcast outside

The gray turns to pale blue as it enters the windows

One allows more light to enter than the other does

The furniture lies scattered but intentional

As if someone tried to mimic haphazardness

Should I relate?

The tables and some of the chairs

The TV stand

The doors

All identical faux wood patterns

The kind you'd see if this scene were to be shot anywhere else in academia

Uniformity

I need to get out of this room

The cars are small from here

The people are smaller but the proportions seem off

Of all songs to be in my head

Am I really that much of a cliché?

I broke the window

Not the window itself but the locking mechanism

I needed air

I'm not sure why a janitor's cart is in here

It seems out of place but it's somewhere to put what I don't need anymore

Should I relate?

The hallway looks like artificial midnight

It sneaks in but I think I've kept it out

I should be there

No

It isn't real

Not enough

The air is neither warm nor cold

There is no wind up here

Shouldn't there be?

I should close the shutters anyway

Someone might be cold

The light switch won't work

Fuck this

I'm going home
