Out of time

Who am I to decide?
Who am I to choose who lives and dies?
All boats float on a rising tide
I see what’s worthy
And this scurvey sea dog
Is not so impervious
To the ravages of time any more.
Any more? Any more for any more?
Last orders at the bar
Then we’ll show you the door.
Put on your best shoes
And hit the dance floor

Who am I to decide?
Who am I to choose who lives and dies?
I am the one who stands
out of time, out of place
Keeping it clean
Making my space
Tied by no ties,
Held by no bond
The tide turns again
And life moves on.
