[00:13.540]It's a still life water color
[00:15.630]
[00:17.760]Of a now late afternoon
[00:19.730]
[00:21.510]As the sunshines through the curtained lace
[00:24.100]
[00:25.600]And shadows wash the room
[00:27.550]
[00:30.230]And we sit and drink our coffee
[00:33.420]
[00:36.180]Couched in our indifference
[00:38.660]Like shells upon the shore
[00:40.290]
[00:41.250]You can hear the ocean roar
[00:42.870]
[00:45.240]In the dangling conversation
[00:47.530]
[00:49.060]And the superficial sighs
[00:51.190]
[00:53.250]The borders of our alliance
[00:56.060]
[00:59.500]And you read your emily ****inson
[01:01.990]
[01:03.700]And I my robert frost
[01:05.770]
[01:07.600]And we note our place with bookmarkers
[01:09.730]
[01:11.480]That measure what we've lost
[01:13.370]
[01:16.260]Like a poem poorly written
[01:19.140]
[01:21.670]We are verses out of rhythm
[01:24.150]
[01:25.010]Couplets out of rhyme
[01:26.650]
[01:27.320]In syncopated time
[01:29.840]
[01:30.850]And the dangled conversation
[01:33.730]
[01:35.060]And the superficial sighs
[01:37.240]
[01:39.200]Are the borders of our alliance
[01:41.410]
[01:45.300]Yes we speak of things that matter
[01:47.540]
[01:49.760]With words that must be said
[01:51.570]
[01:53.660]Can analysis be worthwhile
[01:55.710]
[01:57.480]Is the theater really dead
[01:59.360]
[02:01.780]And how the room is softly faded
[02:04.860]
[02:07.660]And I only kiss your shadow
[02:10.680]I cannot feel your hand
[02:12.620]
[02:13.130]You're a stranger now unto me
[02:15.640]
[02:16.710]Lost in the dangling conversation
[02:19.370]
[02:21.160]And the superficial sighs
[02:23.200]
[02:25.130]In the borders of our alliance
[02:27.310]
