(We Have) No Time

We have no time for all of this We need to speak the closing prayers Now little choice or sense of reason And all we knew has come to bear These nervous sounds come from behind her In the night, unseen by anyone So many bonds are forged between them But deepest love is now snapped and gone It's not up to you to point the finger The shields are hammered into place Complex thoughts are well beyond me The shock has buried any trace Certain moments fraught and crowded Certain dreams twist and reform Certain facts keep getting bigger Certain thoughts lost in the storm We have no time for all of this We thought there'd be a whole lot more This ignorance was stalked and captured The horizon draws so close, I'm sure A silent cry, a sense of shock Too long hiding from the truth The past is dead, the throne abandoned No point in seeking further proof It's not up to you to point the finger The shields are hammered into place Complex thoughts are well beyond me The shock has buried any trace Certain moments fraught and crowded Certain dreams twist and reform Certain facts keep getting bigger Certain thoughts lost in the storm We have no time for all of this
