record of our failure

Imagine locked in a room with 5 other people, the gentle hum of the fan keeping you cool. The computer consoles to your left glow a cold blue in the shallow lighting. You breath in a little to save the o2, it tastes of the sweat 5 others in the room and a the clinical flavour you remember when you were a kid waiting with your mother at the hospital. Instead of waiting for a check up, you're waiting to save the world, if only I had the courage to do that.

It snowed the other day, some time I was thinking it was May,
But the ground was cocaine white covering the modelling clay,
The window steamed underneath my girlfriend’s breath,
I wanted to steal it from her, so no one could take what was left,

Taking pictures of the moment, had them developed,
Old faced and wrinkled caustic soda all over my eyes,
Sort of show that time works on your soul, to envelope
the difference between truth and lies,

It snowed the next day, this year colder than the one before,
Flat cardboard boxes full of clothes pegs and washing lines,
We wrap up tight together try to keep in the warm,
The fire place awakes and dances a burning light,
