Kupio je taj sat

Kupio je taj sat
da mu otkucava.

Kupio je taj sat
da mu se ne približava.

Kupio je taj sat
da vidi koliko mu je vremena preostalo.
I nikome nije hteo da kaže zbog čega.
Pa, ko bi još okačio sat u pomoćni toalet?

Kupio je taj sat
i zabio na ekser
u drvo
u snove
u pluća
u život.

Taj sat je još uvek živ.
Njega nema već mesecima.

He Bought That Clock

He bought that clock,
To tick away to him.

He bought that clock,
For no one to get close to him.

He bought that clock,
To see how much time he's got left.
And he didn't tell anyone what for.
who else would hang a clock in the toilet?

He bought that clock
And stuck it on a needle
In the wood
In dreams
In lungs
In life.

That clock's still alive.
He's gone months ago.

    We have a clock in the toilet. Weird, yes, but works for us...
    Not sure who you were talking about, but have an idea. Hope is not too painful. <3
