Have you ever noticed that there is always this ticking sound in the background of life? Ace Enders is under the impression that it is possible to fade out the inherent background noise of your life (or so I've taken upon myself to infer because of track 13). But ever since I noticed this ticking I've begun to wonder....
Maybe it is possible to drown out all the crying around you, the laughing, the alarms and horns, the sounds of television and radio and your internet pop-up blocker even....but can you ever fade out the ticking?

And even if you can, even if you achieve that ultimate sort of clarity and calm, can you ever ignore the fact that the earth is spinning fast.
No. I don't think so. So maybe you shouldn't make it harder on yourself. Maybe you should stop banging emotional pots and pans like it's new years eve. And maybe you should stop spinning back and forth and back and forth. The world will do that for you. It doesn't need your help. And no one is gonna pick up a broken top when you spin right off the table.
