11:29 Or 4:44

the clock say's 11:29 but i think it might be 4:44
the hands aren't moving up or down and we did
that some old dance of death for days in the world
of blue and gold  " hey come here and kiss me  i 
love it when you can't see whats coming at you "
you run and run but you can't escape it till you die 
i think i'm going insane  but the feeling of life left 
me years ago when we killed the one with snake 
eyes , now the day has come but its still dark 
outside and we danced till we felt life re-enter our
lifeless bodies like the sun stretching over barren 
flats we all see it differently but its still the same 
it's hell . the clock says 12:35 but i still think its 
4:44, in hell no time passes for the damned . the 
seven seals were broken  by a single blinded soul. 
i feel the worms crawl in and out , in and out. the 
lies coming at me like flies , the flies making up 
stories about wives taking advantage of cats .

this doesn't even make any sense, it's just rambling? What are you talking about John?
