A Knife In Time by James Beoddy

I was lost but now I’m found. I was square but now I’m round. I was up but now I’m down.

The knife is the color of time.

I was young but now I’m old. I was warm but now I’m cold. I was bought but now I’m sold.

The knife is the color of time.

I was gone but now I’m back. I was tight but now I’m slack. I was white but now I’m black.

The knife is the color of time.

I was red but now I’m blue. I was me but now I’m you. I was many but now I’m few.

The knife is the color of time.

I was awful but now I’m fine. I was color, now I’m line. I was water, now I’m wine.

The knife is the color of time.

I was hungry, now I’m fed. I was reading, now I’m read. I was living, now I’m dead.

The knife is the color of time.

I was frightened, now I’m brave. Now I’m spinning in my grave. No more soul to try and save.

The knife is the color of time.
