I never noticed the suicide explosive handlebar
Concealed in your grasp
I never noticed until the moment
You inhaled the breath that would be your last gasp
I never noticed the ox entrails
You strung and nailed across the corners of your wall
The lazy way that they spun and swayed
And spelled my name
I never noticed that at all
This is not a message to you
No one gets a message through
Stop
Why?
Kid, why can't I?
I never noticed the thing I knew
And understood and thought was good
And I was wrong
And now I know it, now I own it
Now I can relive each moment all year long
But this is not a message to you
No one gets a message through
Stop
Why?
Kid, why can’t I?
Stop
Go
Why?
I think you know
Stop
Go
Where?
I think you know
