A Matter of Time - Jukebox the Ghost

And after rearranging the furniture you slept alone

You awoke to find the war was finally done

You rubbed your eyes and squinted at the sun

Which was brighter and hotter and better and lit up

The earth like a birthday cake

You were amazed you were still living

To celebrate this new beginning

Where the grass is a little greener

And the Earth is a little bigger

And the trees are a little taller

Due to air that’s a little cleaner

And suddenly

Voices rang out from the clouds

Bursting out in song

Speakers pumping loud

Keep on crying just to stop the water rising

To your brain composed of dirt

You keep on pissing to keep on drinking

You keep on eating to keep on shitting

Time will wear you down

You clapped your hands and sighed

You were amazed that you survived

And the air that you were breathing

Gave you a supernatural feeling

And the sound of your heart beating in time

With the rhythm of your breathing

Mixed with the speed of the Earth spinning

Was precisely the same speed as earthquakes

Building beneath your feet

Awaking strangers that you meet

To see the collision of a hurricane

And a suicidal plane, oh God

It’s only a matter of time

It’s only a matter of time

It’s only a matter of time

It’s only a matter of time

Until, suddenly

A voice will ring out from the clouds

Bursting out in song

Speakers pumping loud

Keep on crying just to stop the water rising

To your brain composed of dirt

You keep on pissing to keep on drinking

You keep on eating to keep on shitting

Time will wear you down

It’s only a matter of time
