I don't believe it! Two weeks have passed already, so I can post my latest. Going for a slightly Pink Floyd vibe here and would love comments

He hears the sound
The rain is crashing on the skylight
He looks around at papers
Scattered on his desk
The winter's come, it's 4 am he should be sleeping
The night is gone and morning hasn't yet come creeping
He sometimes he spends his whole life just waiting
Chorus
How he wishes that he could go back
But the clock keeps ticking, moving forward
Telling him he's one foot in the grave
She was the one that he could turn to in a crisis
Always so calm, she helped to keep him in his place
But now she's gone, it's 4 am he should be sleeping
But what's the point? When he's asleep he's only dreaming
So he's awake and waiting for another day to dawn
Chorus
