the proposition
handcuffed to the park bench
hypodermic people poking
fun at the living
please lift the weight out of this
it takes the weight out of living
are we just infants
that are ripe for the training
the opposition
can't feel the tentacle reach
suction cup the numb arms
of the elderly
please lift the weight out of this
it takes the weight out of living
let these walkers trip on
endless proof
pattern against user-dilated
bastard waiting for nothing
circus carny guarding
the gates of heaven
pact stuck in limbo abduction
wormed our way through
distant earth
this intuition
limps with the cane of suspicion
folding space in the crease
of this page
it takes the weight out of this
it takes the weight out of -
trickling the ticking of this
grandfather clock
the opposition
can't feel the tentacle reach
suction cup the numb arms of
the elderly
chorus
and if this clock keeps
ticking away
will time be hesitated
of all the minutes that were
taken away
will your watch be waiting
sand falls through
time portals
these landfills - immortal
and if this clock keeps
beating down
let the branded time
keep playing
of all the minutes that
were taken away
will your watch be waiting
