Time

Older chests reveal themselves
like a crack in a wall,
starting small, and grow in time.
And we all seem to need the help
of someone else
to mend that shelf
of too many books,
read me your favourite line.

Papa went to other lands
and he found someone who understands
the ticking, and the western man's need to cry.
He came back the other day, yeah you know
some things in life may change
and some things
they stay the same.

Like time, there's always time
on my mind.
So pass me by, I'll be fine,
just give me time.


(Older chests - Damien Rice)
