"the build up lasted for days 
lasted for weeks, lasted too long 
our hero withdrew, when there was two 
he could not choose one, so there was none 
worn into the vaguely announced..

the spinning top made a sound like a train across the valley 
fading, oh so quiet but constant 'til it passed 
over the ridge into the distances 
written on your ticket to remind you where to stop 
and when to get off.."
