turn table turn
for you so set in your ways
can capture the light of day,
and turn it into dismays.
turn table turn
take the feather of a bird
and bury deep through hardened ground,
while the city scrapes and burns.
turn table turn
keep the secrets out and open
so as the sun rises to bring the day,
you leave the rain moping.
turn table turn
until i stop you now
gravity is law,
and i’ve finally learned how
to
turn table turn
i’ve stopped and realized
that your heavy burden lasts,
until the end of all my lies.
turn table turn
you're slowing down indeed
i’ve learned to stop and think,
i am no longer in need.
of the
turn table turn
until you realize
that your turning tables,
were only your disguise.
