Everyone is sleeping only we are up
We´re the last two in the whole house
I am writing a literature paper up
And following me she peeps out

A grey mouse from some field apparently
Summer´s end and reaping´s begun
But just think about how painful it could be
to be scythed and cut by someone

But it ´s not a pal in distress I´m thinking
Calmly stay and I´ll fit you in
Before someone comes you´ll rise in the morning
We´ll meet again at evening

Into the night we will both scratch together
You with your teeth and I a pen
That we have different coats is of no matter
But just our take on creation

It´s summer´s end and I am full of regret
killers are going through the land
If it harms you or not who can assess it
So I´m offering you asylum
