drip after drip
Dec. 2nd, 2007 11:01 amthere's never time to measure all the things
that happen to us there are many strings
that tie us up and will not let us go
a million facts that each one has to know
and we are summoned each time a bell rings
we could go faster i guess had we wings
there's never any reason things are so
what we discover is no simple fact
the universe is colder than a rock
beneath the ice we wait for a last shove
far beyond any sign of kindness or tact
there's room to challenge every horrid shock
but never enough time to show our love
