Things Fall Down

When its warmer
than hot
there's a former
there's death a lot

Things fall down                              Build a school
dry heat                                             that you can run to
brings to ground                                start to make some rules
a silent sound                                    and give you a shoe
cracking earth
you have found                                 Its in lieu
                                                          they owe it to you
                                                          yo've run so far
Things fall down                               they shold build a school to you
cattle disappear
never to appear again                        You ran the Olympics
we're at the end                                  to second place
we're at the rear                                  so build a school
                                                           to yor face
                                                           at yor great pace
Dust in the dry heat
is here                                                 You ran the others
you fear                                               to less grace
until yo've nothing left                        running barefoot
til yo're bereft                                      was the ace
then left
all this nothingness                             You used to run
behind                                                  when first a school
for some better land                             sprung up in place
to find                                                   now there's space
                                                              to build a school
                                                              in your name
Things fall down                                   you knew how
that you thout were                                to speed a game
for forever                                             and you ran far
because of the                                        from blame
never rain weather
can't hold things together                      You ran Olympics
keep them going                                     to second place
death it seems                                         now build school
has a lot owing                                        in its place

                                                                 You ran
Things fall down                                       into space


til no soundupon the ground
is again found
things fall down
you can't replace
just give up
and flee the place.
