Bathroom Inscriptions 歌詞

Time tends to have an affect on things Pictures fade and concrete cracks But in a place where relief brings There is a place where decay lacks I've seen the writing on the walls Etched by a knife or sharp object Most are rude in bathroom stalls But they last longer than you'd expect Vandalism at a minute scale Through the sands of time it prevails A message written 20 years ago Is as fresh as yesterday's prose Engraved for eternity For everyone to look and see As juvenile as it seems The thought captured at the scene Dirty thoughts and dirty words Etched on the wall yet never heard Some are just plain absurd As I read one more blurb When there's a date inscribed in time Like August 14th, 1979 The world can see just what was said And what thoughts ran though their heads The oldest ones they stick around They bring a smile or a frown On the throne with my pants down Bathroom transcripts are abound
