Hours

Folder: 
Thought For Food

hours fall out the window

onto the street below

tires disperse the parts

of the grandfather clock



still do hear the echoes

of midnight and of noon

with the ev'ning sirens

surrounding the pale purple hue



and there's nothing left

but to lay still

bullets go over your head

but not all hide from the truth



every silent second

is a ticking time bomb

whose pin was pulled for fun

got in that sports car drunk



still are a thousand words

and replays in your head

never stopping talking

..ever again..



till there's nothing left

but to lay still

bullets go over your head

but none remain below the truth



one way or the other



still do hear the echoes

of midnight come at noon

with the ev'ning sirens

surrounding whisps and candle dew



and there's nothing left

but to lay still

bullets go over your head

but not all hide from the truth
