No Good Before Noon

I admit that I have realized

I'm not built for nine to fives

But you know I'm no good before noon

So I ask myself why you decide to waste your time

On a storefront's phone when you could have stayed at home

Sleeping in instead

A choice to never leave the bed again

We change the pace

We count each other's debts

There's forty minutes left in our day

Or should I say days?

You could have told me from the start

I could have kept you safe from harm

I could have left you alone

You could have worked from home

Square one instead

A choice to never leave your bed again
