Temporary

I’m fading in the sun My stomach will turn me inside out Was there something I could try Ignore the call to arms Deafening but just not quite loud enough It’s never loud enough As far as I recall Just like a hole in the wall To save you from what you want This (This) is (is) arbitrary This (This) is (is) temporary A pile of stones in a pond Like the bricks you lay your head on This (This) is (is) arbitrary This (This) is (is) temporary Run out of oxygen If I could I'd get you just as far Take the words apart I lack the evidence Ruined all but the constant misery And I can hear them call My hesitant withdrawal Just like a hole in the wall To save you from what you want This (This) is (is) arbitrary This (This) is (is) temporary A pile of stones in a pond Like the bricks you lay your head on This (This) is (is) arbitrary This (This) is (is) temporary Just like a hole in the wall To save you from what you want This (This) is (is) arbitrary This (This) is (is) temporary A pile of stones in a pond Like the bricks you lay your head on This (This) is (is) arbitrary This (This) is (is) temporary
