Rent
Shhh
Sleepless nights
I'm tip tip toeing
Shhh
Sleepless night
It's the moment I
Decided to get my pj's on
Get to lay and be laying upon
The shhh knock knock
Shhh
Someone is sleep you see
It isn't me
I thought how would anyone kno know
I was awake up this late
If I pretend to sleep and breathe like if I was
Asleep
But this is yet another
Sleepless night.
The knock on the doir was the land lord
Looking for rent
Im guessing
Knocked on the front door.
Paycheck slide under the mat
I guess the check bounce back
The first of the month
It's time to pay
San diego priced 1000 for rent
That is with roommates and other expenses
Hope the night stays sleep for the rest of the week
For now the Sleepless nights have occurred
Moonlight shines and the land is paid
Goodnight rent is due not over due paid
