Now

This house is never silent.
That's one thing I've noticed, unlike other places 
Here is never quiet.
The is no break, no pause, no stop, only Go.
Run.
Faster. 
Keep going, there's no time--
Now.
With certain people I allow myself to be tired, those who feel safe.
It's a moment to take a moment, not take a knee but stop and breathe.
but this house is silent, the globe in here 
never stops spinning.
Run.
Faster.
Keep going, there's no time--
Now.
Take Now, don't let it go, this is your chance, all you get...
Take Now, take your time.
Laugh with friends, dance in the rain and 
all of this sounds totally cliche but
Hold the hands you want to hold, watch the grass and flowers grow
This house is never silent, this body is never still, always
Run.
Faster.
Keep going, there's no time, NOW--
All we have is Now.

    In quiet places

    If I were high, I'd tell you
