lyrics

I’m not a boy yet not a man.
I am the sand at the bottleneck of an hour glass.
Suspended between two worlds.

Almost fastened at the pinch point,
restricting me from slipping through,
I tell to you,
Take me as I come perched on the fulcrum.

For a brief moment I imagined my head exploding.
I became hot and had to drink water to cool down.
Cut me with a miniature dagger a million times,
So that when Death arrives I didn’t feel him coming.

I’m not a man, I’m not a boy.
I’m not sure where I find myself at all.
Just carried by the clock.

Maybe a mouse in the corridors of time.
Perhaps a flea, most likely dust.
When I start to rust,
Don’t seek me in the market.

Let me be witness only to hands striking hours.
Fingers touching fingers.
The young boy sings, the old men listen.
Will I ever get to feel it?
