The Roof
All the pillars are falling
Disappearing
Crumbling and cracking
Falling always
One by one they crumble
One by one the crack
One by one they fall
They collapse
Oh, how they fall
Oh, how they fall and collapse into rubble
What happens to the roof when all the pillars fall
Piece by piece the roof falls as the pillars fall
Does the roof turn into rubble
Does it stay in those single pieces
Oh, what happens to the roof
What happens once the last pillar falls
When no longer is there anything to hold up the roof
Oh, what happens
What happens
What happens
Does it remain in its peices, but still broken
Is it cracked
Is it crumbled
Does someone come along anf fix it
Mend it
Heal it
Is it abandoned
Left alone
Forgotten
Never to be thought of again
Are the peices taken and used by someone who does not understand the beauty of it
Who used it as a statute
Who uses it as a bench
Who uses it as a floor
To walk all over
Day and night
Night and day
Minute by minute
Hour by hour
Oh, what will happen to the roof
Will nature claim it as its own
Ivy and vines creeping over it
Claiming it as their home
Will someone come along who understands the true beauty of this roof
Will they understand that it needs something to support it
Will they help
Will they mend it
Oh, what will happen to the roof when the pillars fall and collapse
What will happen
What will happen
Nobody knows
Oh, how nobody knows
