Time

Lyrics: Brian St Croix

Feeling lazy, had enough

Staring at the sky to see what the clouds make pictures of

Plane flies over form New York to New Orleans

A bird sings falsetto from a porch swing

Jacob cries ‘cuz something’s died tonight

Rolling around on sultry ground

I feel the images that have laid me down

Asking myself a million questions

It’s got to be something I love to regress in

Walk down the street everyone I meet is aggravation

Everyone at top speed, don’t want your adoration

Don’t look at me, don’t flash me any temptations

‘Cuz I’m not satisfied for the need to qualify for a piece of your time

It must be a thousand degrees in my mind

Surprised I can think at all

I know  there’s a reason to stay

But I’m distracted by as my skin starts to crawl

chorus

Another ring from the grandfather clock

A premonition that life just stopped

Standing on the porch I stare into his

Wishing that I could maybe change the life he’s been living

chorus
