Weighted too long
somebody lies in wait
it may be me, it may be me
whilst all intangibles permeate
I'll feel different, momentarily
just wait, just wait
I am too scared to be face to face
with fate, oh that I hate
but I see round corners
despite mists that obfuscate
though not into the future
let me sit in peace, remove this weight
I'll just wait, knowing there's a trap
then all too late
as I lay baited and blamed
pre-emptedly ashamed
for I could sit still
no one would mind
but my mind, that won't hibernate
any more
I wait here, just inside
the door
as I forget already
unsteady, heavy
I'll rest before
I deal with the end of time
tiring from the chair
to there
guided back, willingly I know
I don't want to go?
oh, I don't want to go
I need to sit with peace
see if I'd return from that place
rather than rest in-between
heart ache and heart break
until the fault shifts
somebody lies in wait
wait
wait
wait
wait
wait
I can't recall this
