Dark is as it gets

dark is as it gets

the clock ticks away

slowly as it can

yet consistent

fades away the perception

of whats real

and whats not

dark is as it gets

the clock ticks away

nevertheless faster

and, consistent

grey is what resides

on the outside of inside

and the inside of outside

dark is as it gets

the clock has ticked away

the sands of time

put upside down

hope of a slow reversal

or so as it seems

from where I am

dark is as it gets

the clock ticks away

slowly as it can

yet consistent

fades away the perception

of whats real

and whats not...
