So I sit in silence Engulfed by grief I mourn what was once a marvelous and magical masterpiece I'm Caesar in his final hour And you fiddle while Rome burns An unfeeling body I'm a dog on his back and you are merciless I lay, a fetus, anchored by a heavy heart Infinitely aggravated by your callousness So I sit in silence A pin drop could burst my ear drums My mind riddled with violence And echoes of redrum ring true to me I'm the son of Jehovah in the minute he breathed his last And you An unfeeling body with the kiss of Judas So sweet And suave And sacred And scintillating And safe But there're chinks in your armour You are Brutus And like Peter in the garden of Gethsemane Thrice you denied my existence Troubling to mine mind how you mindlessly mute us And just look how that added solar systems And galaxies And universes And space to our distance And so you sit in silence Pacified by the relief that you no longer have to carry this secret Oh, to pick your brain like surveying the ceilings of the Sistine chapel I would give a limb or two although that would be worth as much to you as the ruins of Babylon An unfeeling body With a touch as cold as June though I still think of you fondly Mere millimetres the space between our vessels But Hills And dunes And deserts And forests And oceans And mountains And Everest we would have to wrestle to reconcile our hearts And so we sit in silence Met with a rude awakening We've been kicked out of Eden It's much colder beyond these walls there's no mistaking it A pair once revered we are Adam and Eve and Now we are the subjects of ridicule, And heartbreak And fidelity And infidelity And trust And mistrust And quarrels And passion And pride And lust And love Beautiful, agonising, tragic, doomed love Oh, how I wish I could barter with father time So that he may reverse his hands And return to the day we committed that lovecrime So I keep hold of my beating drum and not invite you for a dance
