In the Common Room
Over beneath the height of time
People desire so much more
Then the small amounts you have
They won’t cut it today for sure
Hoping everything will work out
Through the bag-less heart of yours
Zoning out I cannot see it all
Don’t play me the fool, I am not
Secrets I desire to learn are all about you
Catch the hours before end time
And I’ll complete what it is you want
For I’ll be in the common room
Awaiting your fruitful heart
Inside, there’s what is left of me
