Mumbled monologues Muttering the past Today is alive But cannot last And tomorrows mumblings Will mimic the sounds That should have been made While today was around Mumbled monologues Recollections recorded The glory of yesterday So greatly distorted Today carries with it The cancer of time And always falls victim At the peak of it's prime Mumbled monologues Paying homage to the past While today bravely suffers And fades away fast And the saints at the temple Sacrifice the future today While the past steals the treasure And slips silently away
