| «You'll wake up wrapped in winter if you sleep through summer.»
|
| Hey, thanks for the tip, but I doubt that you’ve got it covered
|
| We’ll use spring and fall as buffers while our skin gets tougher
|
| And you? |
| You can cling like clichés to one another
|
| We’re taught to take precautions
|
| We take more than our share
|
| The cautious steps we’re taking can’t take us anywhere
|
| We sprang forward and fell back, and we heard our clocks ask:
|
| «Hey, you! |
| If time’s a constant, why am I constantly under attack?»
|
| So, we held its hands to help it, but our hearts were selfish
|
| Sometimes the best intentions end up intense without means to quell it
|
| We’ve poisoned our blood streams and blackened our lungs. |
| We’ve enabled the
|
| edifice that it’s how we belong
|
| We may suffer together, but we all die alone |
