Cools the Mind

What does it mean? The flowers in the vase What does it say? Dying colours in a lifeless place? Why does it begin? To ultimately end? Where is memory alive? Where is the life of a memory when you're thinking about a lost friend? The sun clocks life lived in days The stars tell of life past in the dark The lines on our palms Don't worry where they finish or where they start Perhaps life cools the mind Perhaps life lives in the heart Never has there been a second the same Time records the history of our lives Time leads us slowly to the dark
