Songtext:
Sleeping tight
Contented sugarplums danced
Not a care in the world
The contract shone with permanence
The moment had arrived
Somehow I had survived the questions
A new road was opening
It was my chance to sing at long last
The academic blockade was melting
When along came a quiet truth with fire for my bed: 911
Sirens awoke my neighbors
EMT's confused, asked me where I was bleeding
But it was so dark
Waking up in the middle of a freezing night,
I wondered if I'd ever see the sun again
Wind whistling warnings on my frosty window
Summer where'd you go?
I dig for answers under snow
The moment had arrived
Somehow I had survived the answers
A new road is opening
What will tomorrow bring?
You never know
Finally, the sun came through my window
I got up slow and plugged in my guitar
Contented sugarplums danced
Not a care in the world
The contract shone with permanence
The moment had arrived
Somehow I had survived the questions
A new road was opening
It was my chance to sing at long last
The academic blockade was melting
When along came a quiet truth with fire for my bed: 911
Sirens awoke my neighbors
EMT's confused, asked me where I was bleeding
But it was so dark
Waking up in the middle of a freezing night,
I wondered if I'd ever see the sun again
Wind whistling warnings on my frosty window
Summer where'd you go?
I dig for answers under snow
The moment had arrived
Somehow I had survived the answers
A new road is opening
What will tomorrow bring?
You never know
Finally, the sun came through my window
I got up slow and plugged in my guitar
