Slam the door
Fasten the chain
Ignore the roar
Of the pounding rain
Turn back the clocks
Wind up the hands
Let not the ticks and tocks
Sound through the lands
Shut one eye
Close two ears
Kiss good bye
To the coming years
Open the chest
Clean the dust
Take no rest
And dive into the past
Forget tomorrow
Erase today
Drown the sorrow
Hold the grief at bay
Choke the tears
Shake the pain
Grapple the fears
From going insane
Then the illusion breaks
Shatter and rust
And the control shakes
Crumble to dust
Curse and rail
Cast the blame
Cry and wail
The misery's the same
Sink into the deep
Fall into the night
Break down and weep
“Can it ever be right?”
So silence the riot
Kneel and pray
Suffer the quiet
Throw Pity away
