Silhouettes in Time

Jan 08, 2006 15:27

Staring like a child up into darkened windows
Watching dancing silhouettes
Wishing it was mine
Lights flickering on and off
Bodies moving with the absence of time
The essence of which is not to worry
And worry is all the mind does
Thinking of possibilities
And what it is like to become undone
To sway loosely and swagger about without care
Worrying not of yesterdays
Past, present, futures are nowhere
I am the white rabbit
Getting sucked into the abyss
Watching melting clocks laugh at me
As I sink further into this
No time, No time
Screaming these ridiculous ridiculing statements
I have no time
I cannot miss one day, one hour, one second
I am watching my life waste away
Bags under my eyes
I will sleep when I am dead
Wrinkles on my forehead showing all the worry I have had too early in my lifetime
My eyes are bloodshot, nearly closed
Because sleep is pointless, wasting valued time
No time, no time
This world may pass me by, but I will be successful in the next one
The deeper the rabbit hole goes, the more I am destined to serve the Red Queen
I am a slave
Part of this machine
This one moment I steal away looking up at a darkened window
Sending messages throughout the universe of how much time should be valued
Live this life once, only once
Standing here, Wondering what real love must be like
And How I wish to have such a simple mind
I wish, I wish I could.
I cannot find the switch to turn off all of these befuddling mechanisms inside of me
To stop time, hold it in the palm of my hands
and look into you
I have seen so much but no time to figure out the meaning
If I could just hold time
Just once
I would stare at you for hours
Just to figure you out
To know things I have always wondered
Why do your eyes glitter so much?
Why is there something lurking behind that smile?
Something is there that you are not speaking
I would like to find you out
You are the perfect puzzle for someone with all the time in the world
Perplexing to all the simple ones
I would love to just...
Pick you apart...
Yes I think of all of this
When the thoughts are running through, I am quiet to catch them
Grasp them, and release them into you.
Do not be afraid of any of this
Time is precious
And I wish to give you all of this
My knowledge
My philosophy
To whom I wish
Take this now, preach it to those you are not enlightened, for I have no time
I am the white rabbit
You are my Alice
Discovering all of this new nirvana
Euphoria that is kept inside of you
You may just have the secret to the universe inside of you.
Just one thought, just one piece of time
And you could discover life as we know it
This is what I think about
When there is no sound
Staring up at windows
At silhouettes...
