Not All Bad

I've got bags under my eyes

I've been told I look like a raccoon

My eyes are starting to turn red

Just from the exhaustion

But it's not all bad

I've got lots of time to think

Lots of time to read

And I swear

I've got a tan from the moonlight

Just pale enough for me

But just because it's not all bad

Doesn't mean I wouldn't trade it in

If I could

For a few hours of sleep
