Synchronised Soul

The red, splattered, feathers are falling
Trace down the windows,
Smeared with this wingling's
Blood,
While the ashes creep forwards
Hungrily crawling
Waiting and
Growing,
Watching and hearing

(Click.Click.)

Ticking and counting
Ticking and counting
Down and out
It never relents,
Click. Click.
Gears are unwinding
Listen closely
They drown out the screams.

(Clickclick)

It's dark inside where none can see
Numbed to the pain and up to the
heart
In blood, sanguine and ablaze,
All to feel, All to fear, All to hear is the-

(Cli ick cki ck)

While the ashes
hearing
watching
knowing
They're not there
no
We, can't, feel, you,
Refuse to feel it
Block out the pain

(Cl cl ick cl cl ick)

This heart yearning
Reaches to that accursed sound
These gears wind up the heartstrings,
Click. Click. Thud. Thud.
Mechanical beating,
Watch the clock bleed.

Click. Click. Don't. Stop.
