Pause - The Meeting Places, Jim Fairchild

Scrape the canvas

It’s time for letting go

Be the one who feels the slight

But not a sign to show

As the front door opens

A play of light will fall

Tv’s are on to fill the night

No words exchange at all

Be the one who’s words i find

Or be the thorn pulled from my side

Can you tell the plot from life

Be the only one who trys tonight

Take your chances

The distance only grows

I’ll be the first to act surprised

You’ll be the last to know

Tired leaves will drop down

Defy a willing sun

Half-mast eyes will close the night

As everything comes undone

Be the one who’s words i find

You know it’s time, you know it’s time

Be the one who trys tonight

You know it’s hard, you know it’s hard
