He told me how the world works.
There's a circular system.
Everything's been dumbed down for me -
I'm digitally dulled and he asked,
"You don't know the time?"
I did not.
I am not born of an analog world.
He told me the secrets
and I learned responsibility for the first time.
Ever since my feet have chased hands
and I've watched my world slowly spin quickly out of control.
Sitting in a chair, watching television,
a fire at his four o'clock,
he told me how he made time work for him in the past.
But you can't teach time control
in analog terms for a digital world.
