Laces

Laces

Laces

I think I have a problem

I don't know what to do

I am so intoxicated

I can't tie my shoes

Both laces are right there

But it seems like more

My vision is so blurry

I think I see four

I'm intoxicated

It's complicated

Tying my shoes

I can't concentrate

I reach for one lace

I think I see two

I think I have it now

Now I'm turning blue

I reach for the second

It also has doubled

I grasp it clumsily

But again I fumbled

I'm intoxicated

It's complicated

Tying my shoes

I can't concentrate

The second lace fell

And to my surprise

The first lace as well

All could hear my cries

Back to the start

Where both are loose

They still look blurry

Oh, what's the use?

I'm intoxicated

It's complicated

Tying my shoes

I can't concentrate

I soon found a solution

With no laces to tie

I reached for my boots

Easier with impaired eyes

I'm intoxicated

It's complicated

Tying my shoes

I can't concentrate
