A Time to Pass

So effortless, floating down.

Walking backwards up the ant queen's mound

Flipped through darkness speed of sound

While you watched on.

Careless, misplaced feet

Misplaced emotion with schizo beat

Twister forming beneath my feet

We look so close, from so far away

I misjudged you for a solemn phantom

I misled myself, sung the anthem

Struck up a deal with the gaslight lantern

Painted pictures with Jack The Ripper

Where should we seek out solace?

When does the night break from grip of the lawless?

Where shall we find a place of hospice?

When the world tells us it's time to go.

I drove away in my brain,

Seeking safety from the rain,

I drunk the runoff, went insane

Fell in love with a thoughtless caress

Eyes shed skin and revealed a truth

The lie of life illuminated by youth

When it's time to fall, the mountains croon

With the songs of misty silence
