Etiquette
Bill Borman

Went to the city to escape the open spaces
People walk by as we avoid each other's faces
Wouldn't it be nice if we could say what we mean
Mean what we say and speak before we think

But there is little time to delve
In rules we impose on ourselves
I just need a little time to think
Give me time to think

I'm not sure quite what it means
And I have heard of many things
But rarely it seems opportune to break these walls of glass
It comes and goes so fast

There's a subtle dissonance in sympathetic resonance
Reminiscent of the things we say

There's a harsher undertone
But it goes away

There's a chord unresolved in almost every story told
These days

And there are three notes to the chord; they say that trinity is God
But I only play
