Current Time Hostage
World as we know it, is a lighthouse underwater.
Hello dear one, floods enter these tired lungs of mine.
Hello, is there a soul in sight
–below these tear filled waters of mine?
Constantly turning the hour hand back.
Give me more time.
Time spills waves across our necks, just to the surface.
Can't you see the light?
I still need you near, don't leave me just yet.

We are all going crazy!
World as we know it, can't you stay a little longer?
I don't want anything to change.
–world as we know it.
Waving my hands like crazy, come on, walk a little faster now.
Death is not an option, but it is.
Hello, is there a soul in there
–in this doomed planet of ours?
I love you, mother, father, sister.
I love you weeds, trees, flowers.
World as we know it, can you keep me as your current time hostage?
I don't want your face to change
–oh I love your face.
