Pill Box lyrics

Each day and night routinely

A habitual measure of life

That reminds of frailties

Accumulated with time

Emptied in a week's span

Marking another passage

Shortly sum an elder year

Worn ways of a pill box

The summation of living

Finds itself as if in an instant

A realization of circumstance

A road hazardous, no return

The focus of time's passing

The measurement of an age

In the culmination of years

Prized, presented, a pill box

Small confining compartments

That note the new day's dawn

Then the crescent tip of dusk

Allotted in a regulated share

Somewhere its control fails

'Tween forgetfulness or fret

The tormented soul is dosed

Sedated synergistically so

There lies a rub of faulted folly

Where slumber overtakes it

And living is but seamless drifts

Trading hours for lost respite

Is then living but a routine

Its conclusion but euthanistic

Potions to quell flights and fears

That numb those final years
