#household @nom peg
This world is moving by so quickly,
Water down a hill,
I need a way to stop the clocks,
And keep this freeze frame still,
I sing out loud a toxic tune,
As I drag out the drawer,
A weapon that will keep the moon
Unmoving, ever more,
I take out knives and swords and axes,
Seeking what I need,
Just one glass peg will do the trick,
And plant the timeless seed,
I hold it up, towards the sky,
And see the sun shine through,
It glints dark gold before my eyes,
I see the world as new,
Taking the parchment I have cursed,
With spells I've inked straight on,
I pin it with my cold glass peg,
And sing my toxic song,
"Paranoid of change, I am,
Paranoid of change,
Just one glass peg will do the trick,
And keep the world the same,
Paranoid of change, I am,
Delirious and strange,
My blood will mix the ink I spill,
To keep the world the same,"
I spill the ink and laugh and cry,
And play the darkest game,
The page of time is pinned up high,
"To keep the world the same."
