time's still standing still

michael malarkey

where did you sleep last night?

it was a cold

cold morning

sunrise

stoking the coals

a couple of clowns still toking

and all the well-known skeletons

are singing the same old requiems

late in the evening in the bluest blue

only way to paint two lovers

i'm shit out of luck but i'm stuck on you

one sad sappy fucker

and all the well-known chemicals

are reeling me in now

letting go

and time's still standing still

and i'm still sitting on the windowsill

no talking

big thinking

there was something here that's faded away

i want to stop this scary feeling that these

these silhouettes had faces and names

but instead there's a chorus of strangers like a

a deck of cards in the back of my brain

and i'm stuck here with this hollow idea that when

when some things break they can never change

they never change

where did you sleep last night?

i can feel my shoulders shudder

stars shine their slivers of time

telling all their tales of wonder

and all the well-known skeletons

are singing the same old requiems

and time's still standing still

and i'm still sitting on the windowsill

no talking

big thinking

there was something here that's faded away

i want to stop this scary feeling that these

these silhouettes had faces and names

but instead there's a chorus of strangers like a

a deck of cards in the back of my brain

and i'm stuck here with this hollow idea that when

when some things break they can never change

they never change

they never change
