Time I Whisper

by Jara Jones

/

about

A simple song about hope in a hopeless clime.

lyrics

first verse
I've given up
on suffering
is it my time I whisper
is it my time i whisper
tucking in for winter
I'll see you spring
is it my time I whisper
is it my time i whisper

See me lay down
beg the night my soul to keep
know I'll never earn love
good as sleep
head crooked
watch the silence fill the room
year spent chasing
unrequited sweet perfume

chorus
legs if you gotta run
talent if it's hard won
signal like a flare gun
let's make it binding
make a promise to finding
what we're worth

dearth of motivation
moldy conversation
leaden deprivation
am I unwinding
is the madness still grinding
me

second verse
I'm getting smaller
take less space
is it my time I whisper
is it my time i whisper
Staring out the subway
and I see my father's face
is it my time I whisper
is it my time i whisper

See me talk less
every word, it's a thought grenade
you won't catch me
turning round
seeing what I've made
blood
the lost traveller
my guide
I'll course, I'l scribble on
this little wick of pride

chorus

bridge
It's an unswept source of sorrow
this time I whisper
spent my whole damn life mute, screaming
this time I
time I
comfort cold, undignified
on the bright side, I'll bide time

third verse
I've buried loss
so calm, collect
is it my time I whisper
is it my time i whisper
Still mouthing syllables
in a manner circumspect
is it my time I whisper
is it my time i whisper

See my debts paid
by my spartan living style
I'm just a monk
serving nothing but my own guile
write
and I summon in the air
a little nonsense
no one seems to care

chorus
