no one watches,
no one cares..
no one bothers,
no one dares..

carry on or stop..
sit silent or wail,
its a lonely world..
helpless and frail.

chase the dead
or live and die..
we can only watch...
the time ticking by.

how much we atone,
how long we brook,
all gonna perish..
be saint or crook.

cant close windows,
cant bolt doors..
cant block the dust..
only mop the floor.
