She used to do spectacular things quietly But there’s no more spectacle hidden up her sleeve – Says she’s worn Says she’s over-worked Says she’ll fade away like a passive shade of gray –
Can’t remember the last time she felt
Worthy Or Beautiful Or Held
Says her heart is a broken grandfather clock She simply can’t fix to chime at noon – Says maybe she’ll be setting her own pace With a refurbished cuckoo tune that sounds a lot like Letting love waterfall in –
Her laugh is hollow Her goal too lofty Her eyes imprinted with skepticism But for her sake, I pray Time is in her favor.
