Count Down

count down
by me
written 11.18.06

if i was cautioned
what would i choose?
if i suddenly realized
i had everything to lose

eyes will close & block the sun
arms would fold & come undone

nothing left is sacred
it's all a wash
to count down a lifetime
by staring at a clock

eyes would close & block the sun
arms would fold & come undone

i fly above the evening
with my blinders on
i'm watching your reactions
they go on and on

they go on and on and on and on
on and on and on and on
