lyrics

Compare & Be Free?

As I turn the old rusty tap
Hearing its screeching
I'm reminded of the fleeting past
and its quiescent like essence
That hovers freely above

But I can't save today or any day
It's winding itself away
Forever sanguine
Sallying on down
To somewhere larger than life itself

The more I yearn to capture it
Adorn it
Wrap it
Stop it
The more I see the beating machine
With its tick-tock feats
Information elites
Its summons of no repent
Billboard banality
Of shiny Impostor catch-phrases
Compare and be free

Then go depart capricious one
You lay to dormant
Not striving
Clinging
Needy
Too grey in tinsel our town
And poor in status
