Sleepy

I wrote this few months ago. It's not anything special.
It's about most of the people around me. They see me
only as different. I'm nothing, no one to them... Maybe
it's true. I don't think so.

Sleepy

Why don't you
get to know me
then you would
understand
Why don't you
try to show me
then I could
learn how

I won't make exceptions
I will keep myself aside
maybe you don't want me
maybe you don't want to try

I'm so sleepy...

Why don't you
try to find me
then you would
see how I feel
why don't you
try to eye me
then you would
understand me

I won't make exceptions
I will keep myself aside
maybe you don't want me
maybe you don't want to try

I'm so sleepy...

Help me get up
give me a hand
I am just like you
don't you understand

Only a man...
and I'm so sleepy...

Why don't you
try to hury
maybe it's not
too late
why do you wory
it's not you
who has to wait

I won't make exceptions
I will keep myself aside
maybe you don't want me
maybe you don't want to try

I'm so sleepy...

It comes from the heart.
Only the real music, beautiful
music, or should I say art, comes
from the heart. Eddie Vedder makes
music with his heart. All the guys
from PJ are playing with their hearts.
That's why PJ is so good band.
It's so rare nowadays. There are
no good bands anymore. Well nobody
good as Pearl Jam. Right?

    i liked this alot. what was happening to you when you wrote it?

    i liken it to a fan who has to wait and wait and wait for an autograph.

    maybe she will get it
    maybe not

    how long she can wait?

    determines her
    worth?

    and
    his?

    No it's not about fan. It's about me, you, people like us. THE FUCK UPS! What was happening to me? I'm like that every fuckin' day.
    Even worse. I'm just so fuckin' lonely. Fuck...

    i was told when i was a child that when you get sleepy it's time for your angels to start coming around you.

    it is ok to sleepwalk until
    they get there

    don't be lonely
    see
    WE are everywhere.

    we all love you.

    beautiful poem

    im so sleepy
    makes me wonder
    i read this book
    i trace all the steps
    it all makes sense

    and then jesus steps in
    and the spirit of the devil
    dissapears
    and my drama
    becomes zest for suffering
    in honor of the king

    in jesus name amen

    i think the message in this is so sweet. we all hope that someone will approach us who has been waiting for the right moment. we all want someone to want us and to just try anyway.

    the lone soul sees another and knows.

    lovely.
