Don’t Be Late for Yesterday

Frightened children hurry by the towering silence
Jesters and the whores own the tears
Knights too numb to worry, blind to all but violence
Wicked kings with no eyes or ears

Don't you wait for the sun to shine
One hard rain can be just as kind
Don’t be late for the perfect day
Last one you get may be long gone yesterday
Don't be late, don't be late
For yesterday, yesterday

Love is out there killing victims all too willing
Violators trembling with delight
Such ferocious suffering, tables ripe for turning
One impatient healer will ignite

Don’t you wait for the sun to shine
One hard rain can be just as kind
Don't be late for the perfect day
Last one you get may be long gone yesterday
Don't be late, don't be late
For yesterday, yesterday

Don't be late, don't you wait
Don't be late for yesterday
Don't be late, don’t you wait
Don’t be late for yesterday

Frightened children hurry by the towering silence
Don't be late for yesterday, yesterday
