See the people didn't know they were early,nSo they sat quietly,nStart again,nA brand new day,nAnd doing it all again in smaller increments,nnAnd over again was the shadow of an old friend,nWho was always late,nCan't find the pulse,nnWhy the air didn't falter or move for the fan,nShadows spread across the surface as science explained,nPeople disappeared from view with no idea,nAnd it became clear that no one was afraid,nnAnd it began to move across the screens and the skies,nSeventeen threats were made in pencil writings on walls,nCars of many models were drinking their oils,nGoing to the necessary places.
