Let’s play a game today
The one we played in school
I’ll arrange some random words
U’ll have to find them a meaning
Don’t try too hard to find
I’ll keep it easy this first time
Friend, we, instantly, were
Years, many, gone, by
Better, we, now, each other, know
Things, few, my, on, mind, are
Are u getting what I’m sayin
Or r u baffled by this rhyme?
rides, music, rum, insomnia
Outlining the wasted times
the smoke, nights, speed, laughter
and the never ending fights
the chemistry lessons, the vapor shift,
simple words.. I hope u get the drift!
Chasing, running, connecting, forgetting
U, know, I, hope, at, what, I’m, getting
May not be perfect, I, and, are, neither, you
Lets spend the time guessing what got us through
Better, life may be, when, are, u, by my side
Lets take it slow, lets see what we find!
The games we played.. many
This was the last one
Was it nice one, my dear?
Did you read the words? was it fun?
So tell me now
How long will it take
for you to make sense of
(yes, i'm corny sometimes)
U fall, u break, get up and chase
The pieces, the edges, they weld but shake
At night they tremble
By dawn they stumble
Come wind, come rain
By day they’re back on the way
They stick together like parts of engine
They steam, they heat.. stick to the beat
Cover the miles.. rewind and repeat
Maintain the pace, pump up the race
Breathing down each other’s neck
Never face to face.
Crossing the deserts, streams and lakes
Off the highway, a narrow escape
They’ve been at it for years
For months and days
They reach the mountains
And the map is traced
The journey’s to end
That’s its fate
Today or tomorrow
Sooner or late
The curtain falls on one
Others shall wait
The path he treads
To the holy gate
The journey has ended
For that’s its fate
Righteous or not
Watch and wait
The end is near
That’s no debate
The turn has come
Walk down the gate!
