You, trying to keep the world together
roll on ahead and I'll follow as best I can
and we will both find that we waited
much too long to do anything, as it all fails

and broken focus... causing you to forget to do

it's the nature of life... and a lesson we must all learn.

Waiting Room

Waiting Room by Damian Gadal
Waiting Room, a photo by Damian Gadal on Flickr.
It's a waiting game
this life of running
in circles around
and around, it seems
never to get anywhere
never to fulfill our dreams

Money was the only thing left with a voice,
and it wasn't saying too much on our behalf

It was the voice of the powers that be,
the only thing listened to by those pulling the strings

Opt for different

Opt for different by Damian Gadal
Opt for different, a photo by Damian Gadal on Flickr.
A past love gazes at you from a picture on the wall,
gone before you said the words she wanted to hear,
on lonely nights you fill ashtrays and listen for her call,
knowing she's gone, the past will become unclear,
and you'd forget her face if that picture wasn't there...
she wanted to opt for different and share love, that's all

floating around in a world of machines...

and betrays all in its path

that must be overcome
our future depends on stopping it
