QUOTE : Reaction time<br /><br />Touch the underside of a penny you find <br />on the street<br />Doesn't feel any different unless you close your eyes<br />I can taste the copper in my mouth now<br />seeping from between my teeth<br />There's an explanation I'm sure<br />all this blood<br />it's from all the times I held the glass too close<br />And forgot to tip the dancer<br />A storm just passed<br />and like every other one that came before it<br />I was left unharmed<br />The dogs are all barking and the cats<br />hiding in the basement<br />And the sky is colored that bright yellow glow<br />makes it feel like you're wearing sunglasses<br />that you can't take off<br />Wherever you are now<br />it's not here<br />because I missed it<br />I missed the show<br />I missed the curtain call<br />And forever more <br />I am cursed<br />like a blanket without a body to keep warm
