in my rear view mirror the sun is going down
|
sinking behind bridges in the road
|
and i think of all the good things
|
that we have left undone
|
and i suffer premonitions
|
confirm suspicions
|
of the holocaust to come
|
the wire that holds the cork
|
that keeps the anger in
|
gives way
|
and suddenly it's day again
|
the sun is in the east
|
even though the day is done
|
two suns in the sunset
|
hmmmmmmmmm
|
could be the human race is run
|
like the moment when your brakes lock
|
and you slide toward the big truck
|
and stretch the frozen moments with your fear
|
and you'll never hear their voices
|
and you'll never see their faces
|
you have no recourse to the law anymore
|
and as the windshield melts
|
my tears evaporate
|
leaving only charcoal to defend
|
finally i understand
|
the feelings of the few
|
ashes and diamonds
|
foe and friend
|
we were all equal in the end
|
