Drop Ceilings And Day Planners

Cars And Trains

Compositor: Não Disponível

When you first walked into the office building
That would eventually kill you
Was it the drop ceilings that caught your eye
Or a stiff necked shirt or a prolonged sigh

An eighteenth floor window with a parallel view
To a somber black-tied man closed by
Or an adjacent window with reflections of
The crows and gulls that fly by

No don't be afraid / you won't remember a thing when you awake

When you first stepped into the small cubicle
That could potentially entomb you
Wasn't the calendar your first warning sign
Or the circles under your eyes

From an eighteenth floor window watched your life pass by
Like a sad song passing birds would sing
From adjacent windowsills always searching for
Your perfect fitting metaphor
