CENTRE OF INERTIA

Centre of Inertia
The earth is crawling slow
No time to pause or think straight
Who'll give the world a tow

Grinding to a standstill
Sinking in quagmire
Who's there to fan the flames
Anyone to quench the fire

Snailing at one pace
Can't break into a run
Left staring at the future
Down the barrel of a gun

Lost in blinding thoughts
The mind is easily led
Is there no escape
From the dungeon in your head

Slowly getting weaker
No one there to throw a rope
Praying for salvation
May be your only hope
