The Click In Your Head - Lester Queripel and Fred Williamson

When Paul Newman was playing Brick.
He said he hadn’t heard the ‘click’.
I resonate with everything he said.
About the ‘click’ that happens in your head.
The ‘click’ that changes dark into light.
The ‘click’ that changes wrong to right.
The ‘click’ that triggers the switch.
The medication needed to be enriched.

Far from normality into fantasy
Far from the boredom of reality
To escape the routine………the rut.
Bogged down. You’re stuck!
Being squeezed to death.
Your last breath!
Enveloped by quicksand.
Reaching for an outstretched hand.

The genie in the bottle.
The foot on the throttle.
But could a smile do the trick?
Help you hear the ‘click’?
Or would you rather be another Brick?
What does it take for you to hear your ‘click’?
