Array ( [sid] => 5542 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Hourglass [time] => 2002-10-24 12:30:00 [hometext] => time is the one thing that passes you by the fastest and the one thing that can slow you down and make you feel like one day is forever. [bodytext] => Hearing the loud conception
feels like the first acception
of the longest day of my life
I can't deny the truth that's out there
Something feels all too unfair
about the hourglass that's skewing time

I try to make things right
but it's all still wrong
I try to sleep at night
but the coffee's way too strong

Loving the misconception
feels like my first rejection
of the longest night of my life
I accept the unknown out there
Every piece laid out here with care
even the hourglass that passes slowing time

I try to make things right
but it's all too wrong
I try to sleep at night
but the coffee's way too strong

Time always passes me by
when I'm wasting my life away
Time always causes strife
when I'm giving my time away

And I feel so guilty now, causing everything
I feel less innocent now, bring in the uprising
Feed my hunger now, as I take you in
I breathe about you now, as this begins

I try to make things right
but it's all too wrong
I try to sleep at night
but the coffee's way too strong

The hourglass is against me
as it plots it's weight upon me
I fight to stay up here with you
but the hourglass is just too heavy [comments] => 2 [counter] => 163 [topic] => 34 [informant] => InexactExactness [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SongLyrics )

Ooo and strong indeed the coffee is...

Feed my hunger take me by hand
I'll push and pull and make a stand
You can walk away from this
Or stay to take thy poisonous kiss..
But coffee strong..
you shall miss..

Beautiful write ...love it...ahhh breathtaking..
