Killing Time

Encrypted calls and dark web threads accept reject the terms
Target disclosed payment is set contract is now confirmed
When and where by what design the cleaner makes the call
An overdose a silent clot or accidental fall

Killing time is what I do and yet it’s not a crime
Every minute that ticks by sixty more seconds die

No need for C4 TNT or knife to carve my way
No hollow points no ropes to bind no trace to mark my stay
No DNA no fingerprints my alibi’s routine
Silent with a shadows grace my getaway is clean
No blood no blade no witnesses no evidence to find
A soundless act no trace remains it’s known as killing time

Killing time is what I do and yet it’s not a crime
Every minute that ticks by sixty more seconds die

The judges lawyers and the law they’ll never cage my name
I slip through cracks a ghost in time untouchable by blame
Legally I carve a path through red tapes endless maze
While silently I operate then vanish in the haze

Killing time is what I do my craft beyond their sight
Every minute that ticks by time fades into the night

A stealthy hunter which I am with contracts to fulfill
So much to do so little time and so much time to kill
Each tick’s my prey each tock’s my win time bends beneath my grip
A master of the mundane arts I slay without a script

Killing time is what I do no guilt to leave behind
Every minute that ticks by sixty more seconds die

I reed a book I watch TV or walk around the block
I chase the breeze I fly a kite hear crows in shadows talk
These rituals the perfect mask conceal my secret game
Day after day night after night my victory’s the same

Killing time is what I do a game I play so well
Every minute that ticks by I weave another spell

No trail to track no proof to find my work personified
The world keeps turning unaware as hours bleed and die
Killing time is what I do no chains can hold my name
Each second falls each minute fades my legacy sustained

Killing time is what I do and yet it’s not a crime
Every minute that ticks by sixty more seconds die
