6 SoulStop Gravel Rattle Song
         tick tock
        		 of arms
         the soulbox clock 
        		 of another
        in the backyard
        		  child
        strangers 
        		 waiting
        at the wheel
        		  widow
        xchange
        		 weep
         arms 
        		 sweep
        arms
        		 back
         change
        		 tears
         hands
        		 tick tock
         rattle
        		 bartered
         gravel
        		  on the face of
        but one grain
        		 time
         of sand
        		  stranded
        here
        		  in the wheel
         others
        		  dreams
        understand
        		  stop
        tick tock
        		 tick tock
        the end
        		 the soulbox clock
