How Soon
Sometimes we close our eyes
And beg others not to speak their minds
I don’t want to know what you have to say
When you might not be able to stay
Some lies are too much to bare
But truths are sometimes hidden there
Like in the lines of a poet’s words
Hiding within their own fairy tale worlds
Being afraid of you is something I fear
Please don’t come any nearer
I may just lose my resolve
Before I give up my Revolver
The snow is falling long and low
Flakes float here and there and to and fro
The darkness swallows everything
And street lamps lose their meaning
It’s too late to go
It’s too soon to stay
I don’t really want to know
But still for an answer I pray
You tell me it will all work soon
But how soon before we meet our doom
