Temporary permanence Permeates temperaments I wonder, is this forever Or just a moment? Give but don't take Lets take a break, please put me on a break There's no breaks Just for time's sake There's no escape Bear with the pain in your shoulder, Keep pushing the boulder Up and over And smile for the camera, And push through the era, And leave me behind in the trail of my errors Where do you think it went? The feeling in my soul, The restlessness in my bones You can't stop the timer, you're getting old The stories are vast, no chance to repress them My compass is spinning in every direction A glimpse from the past, a chance to reflect it I've loaned out my time and my brain feels neglected Vacuous space Stuck in this maze Give me a taste Time goes to waste Don't thaw me out, spare me the doubt My idle lungs, the frozen blood Throw me in the ice chest I'm clocking out Bypass time Throw me in the ice chest
