Gone

Time

s t o p s


 

This moment,

golden


 

Before 

it 

all

 goes 

away


 

Before you 

fall,

there’s a time

where you’re ever so high,

and your life

passes through your eyes


 

Before you

fall,

there’s a light

that’s ever so bright,

and your mind

can rest once again


 

In this moment,

I can only watch.

As you

fall.


 

In this moment,

I can’t do anything.

I can’t 

stop


 

Why is it that enlightenment

only comes before you fall?

Why is it that you fly

before they end it all?

Why are you only at peace

in the moment before you’re gone?

Why does time stop here

in the moment before you’re

gone?

    death

    taxes

    How can we be certain of death

    until the day we are dead?

    How do we know that we’ll die

    if we are not dead yet?

    It’s alright

    It’s fine

    It’s 11:11

    the luckiest minute

    of my life

    So don’t waste it

    Hold on for just a minute

    and remind

    yourself you are

    alright

  • Spray-Tanned

    Why did you have to hurt us?

    Again?

    Again?

    ‘Cause when I was young

    there was a chance

    a chance

    to be free

    a chance to see a woman be

    something new and

    different
