justwrite 3 october delayed

have a good time at that scene
shake your legs like you own the place
like the race is long enough for your own spoils
like the trouble is worth bursting your own bubble and a new pair of shoes
the truth is i can't stand it
can't stick the landing
handing in my resignation
stating the nation is on alert so i can't be brought to bear
baring the facts in counteractive decisions
i'm sorry for the circumstances
i ought to never look up the skyline
the chart was pretty easy to read 
that's what the doctor thought but i begged
to differ in proliferation
the signs are up and out and i can't do it
wait until the brew is dry and creaky
there are feet and there are fiends
there are two minutes left until the center
of the earth takes a jump 
shot over the edge and lands
in unknown lands 
stranding kisses out to dry and i know i said
thank you but i meant sorry
i want to be an industry leader
i want to fly the coop
i want to cook the half-time show
growing disregard behind a curtain
i was certain i didn't need to see
but i was mistaken
misbaken like a fruit pie underwater
there was no chance at that point
anointing the last best chance
wearing different pants
seeing different seas
scenes obscene to my eyes 
disguised as normalcy
a quarter past three and it's too late
