Time's Secret

I found a way to slow down Time
You hit it with a blunt
And tie its thieving arms back
Before it can wake up
But then life's cracks, they open up
When time's not there to keep them shut
You've nothing but your wandering wits
To save you from the nondescript
creatures that come out
And rear their scary heads
Some beautiful, some ugly, some that make you wish you're dead.
Then you look up and see that old man time has left his bounds
The night is over as the sun's starts on her daily rounds
The creatures back in hiding
Time passing much too fast
The things that solve such problems
Can rarely ever last
If they did I'd have to start a zoo of creatures that I've found
Where I can lock them up before they drag me underground
Where Time stands really, truly still
I've got no sun, no stars
To tell me of its passing
Or send me its regards
