Another Dimension
Another Dimension
I got tired of pushing the world around today
I took a tiny Nap
The humans
They will all agree
That there was just something strange about today
That time seemed to move more slowly
That I didn't seem the same
I wasn't pushing the Earth
With the same force
And I was slow
Switching the stars with
Blue Sky
And the Moon with
The Sun
And yesterday when I was pushing the world around
My grip slipped
And I sent it spinning
People’s thoughts tumbling
Into their sentences more quickly
Their pace
Faster
Our world spinning
Faster
And they will say the day just slipped away
Time moved quickly
And I will sigh
And I will try to get it right tomorrow
I will try to synch myself up
With the time on their clocks and watches
I will try not to complicate things
By being another Dimension
The humans want to break me into lines
On their watches
They call me Time
They say I'm simple
And that I only fly when they are busy
Or they are having fun
But the truth is
So much stranger than that
