first name basis with the folks
of the shadowed streets of away and nowhere
if it can't be left when you come back down,
don't go up the stairs
and one spark can start the fire
on the most inconvenient night
and a dozen more could have us laughing
while the whole property burns down
well, we stopped one night last month
and the floor had finally gave out
and our feet had said enough,
and I successfully crawled out.
it was hard to tell, from the bottom of the well
so, we took it to the mountaintop for quite the spell
like, if we thought long and hard enough, we'd bend the spoon
we ought to throw more than "man, I hope so"'s at this thing
and soon
lamps at the library before we had morning coffee
I flip Quarters at the driveway I still can't decide
rearranging furniture in the living room,
I combed the catacombs for clues and came out bone dry.
gavin "dry bones" just went overboard and swam back to the ship there's a rule that we all go by he doesn't follow, doesn't get
some truly do forget the way, most just let the darkness have them
nothing lurking in the forest, so who's to blame for all these problems?
a light flips on at the front porch
one hand from out of the well,
that information is so good to have
but it hurts as much as it helps
right place, right time, right people, right time
right place, wrong time, wrong time
right place, wrong time, wrong people, wrong time
wrong message, wrong time, wrong time, wrong time
(Well, you see, they're cultivated so much to this false belief that it doesn't matter what you put in, you're not going to change. Well, you need to fix that, ok? That's can be fixed because change is made for us.)
(Now we cannot---engage a broken world and fix what we don't think is broken. Why fix it, if its not broke? It's broken. Those are not just pretty words, we're not having a "nice mission statement", these are your lives! Take it!)
