You Are Not Here
You are not here
but once were there
(It's a trick of time and space)
A moment gone and gone again
but you stopped and stared
Doesn't matter what you think
because in fact you thought
That was some time ago
time that's already lost
There is no present
but what has passed
Now future, that's the thing
You see, it occurs in the past
a process called... thinking
So there you were
now you know,
reasoning here impeccable
All you did was stand and stare
really rather regrettable...
