Signs

A family photograph
I sit here waiting
No proper graves, no epitaphs
We’ll just go to sleep
Here in this empty room
I count the hours
My weathered heart will find rest soon
This day will be my last
Red skies and melting ice
Should have tipped off someone
Humans in their ignorance
Looked the other way
Days had passed, then weeks and months
They couldn’t stop debating
Now I sit back and laugh
Oh what the hell were they saying
Can’t you see the signs
You can trust your eyes
Can’t you see the signs
Taking your place in line
You can’t escape what’s gonna come
I see you all running
Still wanna be the first in line
Nothing you have learned
Why don’t you use your brain for once
You are going in circles
The competition’s over friend
Your line has lost it’s purpose
Can’t you see the signs
You can trust your eyes
Can’t you see the signs
Taking your place in line
Can’t you see the signs
It is over we are through
Can’t you see the signs
They are coming after you
