Wide Awake

Ticket touts and louts
Pint of stout, crooked snout
In her mouth, bent smiles
Hunched over a bar
Cup of char on a couch
Seen about, usual crowd
Have it large in the town
Never sleeps, bus stops

Never comes in the dawn
Been going since dusk
Wide awake in a room
Ears ringing, watch the news
Mundane, it suffocates
Wide awake, wide awake

In a room, spinning to
Wide awake, can't escape
