we hang on to that ****** thing
hoping it will bring
us luck
does it?
does it?
the **** it does.
shove it,
don't hang on
don't love it
In these vaults where faults are bound to overwhelm me
the Skipper's all at sea and we are all alone
a helmsman with no land or home to tide him by
a reason only if to
if I want to
want to
die or why it has to be this way?
An Oracle would bid me sit and say.
'why hang on at all
Rome built in a day will fall'
it all takes time.
Time is just a cross to bear
a watch to wear,
a moment
dare we look?
dare we
do we give a **** about that thing?
what thing?
I've moved on away from that thing
that thing never did me good
I thought it would,
at one time
I thought the World was flat
that thing
circumcised my brain
colonised my train of thought
I need a ripcord
a Gordian sword
I found it in the word.
