Cautious, chosen words of rhyme Precious, stolen bits of time, spent in trying to define his need Blankly staring into space Shadows dancing 'cross his face, minding only that he makes no move He's forgotten, time stands still All the words stopped up his quill Paper can't catch the spill of thought Has the clock stopped? Is it shifting gears? Have the pipes blocked? After all these years? Has the clock stopped? Has the clock stopped? Constant dripping in the sink Is it the sound of thoughts you think Feels as though you haven't blinked in days Countless rings 'round the coffee mug Nervous dreams drowned by drugs Wonder if you pulled the plug too late The hand drops to take it's turn His pen has left the page to burn A Camel, he has to learn, can't write Has the clock stopped? Is it shifting gears? Have the pipes blocked? After all these years? Has the clock stopped? Has the clock stopped?

I don't mind the wait I don't mind the time I don't mind my fate, If I don't lose my mind I can't stand the lies I can't stand the truth I can't stand the wise and I despise the youth The wages of sin The wages of fear The fear is within The sinner is near Stopped lookin' for the answer Stopped lookin' for a sign Stopped lookin at the cancer and I won't look down the line The wages of sin The wages of fear The fear is within The sinner is near I might be drinkin' whiskey I might be drinkin' wine I might be drinkin' brandy when the reaper cuts the vine The wages of sin The wages of fear The fear is within The sinner is here

New China 04:18
A strand of pearls, jade bangles and chicken foot earrings Are they hearing the call in New China? Investments in abandoned cities Ghost towns and luxury goods oh so pretty Please send us your fakes Who’s on the take?…New China Countdown to default Let’s burst the Red credit bubble Barney Rubble the face of New China Transfer, leverage and disburse Tug on the strings of your faux Chanel purse Cement your erosion You’re set for implosion…New China Shadow play, shadow puppet, shadow banking

Be prepared to get seasick, be beaten up, thrown in jail, fall in love, contract an STD, have your heart broken, your wallet stolen, get shanghaied, hog tied and crucified. ... more
