Oh, blinking light I

Know you’re just doing your job I

Know you couldn’t shut off even

If you wanted to I

Know your boss would

Banish you to some spot on

The ceiling in the basement I

Know you worked hard to get to

This ceiling on the second floor I

Just wish there was some way for

You and I to come to terms with

The fact that it’s very unlikely there

Will be a fire tonight and

Even if there will be I

Accept the risk in exchange for

A bit more sleep without a light

Blinking … one second and

Blinking again I

Just want to get some sleep and

You, my dear blinking light

Aren’t helping
