about

Speak now or forever hold your seat. This song speaks to the small window of time that is open before an opportunity disappears forever.

lyrics

I plunk a piano
I strum a string
I'll frame my mind
When I start to sing

One day'll I take a stand
When I become a man
And my hair is cut neat
But if I don't find the word
To make my passion heard
I'll take a permanent seat
I'll take my seat

The rain it plops
And floods my flow
(Splish, splash)
As above
Some sit in sorry studios

I'll find the words to say
When I am aged and grey
And my hair is cut neat
But unless I find a key
To open up me
I'll take a permanent seat
I'll take my seat

The sky looks grim
I gaze away
Into the mirror
And my eyes of clay

I've lost the words to say
And I'll probably pass away
With my work incomplete
Until I find the star
That guides me very far
I'll take a permanent seat
I'll take my seat
