Paranoid Ego
Settled now you're content,
safe in your ignorance
take it for granted.
Willing to accept the emptiness,
you can never know the truth of it
staring you down the barrel.
"Why believe?" you say.
It’s so much easier to stay
unaware and unafraid
of this disarray.
But thoughts float silent,
mixing through the wind
to pollinate and blend
the world's collective mind.
They come and you step aside,
abandoning what is right,
unwilling to identify
the festering sore of lies.
Suddenly,
the questions open wide.
How will we solve this problem?
The easy way out you can’t deny.
Freedom rides the horizon.
You’ll accept the changes
until it’s all crashing down.
You’ll wonder, "Why
is it all crashing down?"
Everyone’s trying to win
like life is a competition;
darkness invited in
welcome with derision.
The cold bites into the skin.
Shiver away the emptiness.
And the ice breaks thin.
Who can be held?
Surrender just to begin.
New life is waiting for you!
The chance to escape your sin.
The light starts shining through.
Or would you rather give in
to this deadly apathy craze?
Begins like a firing pin,
leaves like a dream.
Focus unlimited invited in:
such a violation.
This isn’t what was meant.
Calculation process selection
to cull from the hoi-paloi:
an abjuration of dissent.
Last call!
Last call!
Last call for urban sprawl!
Under-worked and overpaid,
it's the American Dream
American Dream
American Scheme
The cold bites into the skin.
Shiver away the emptiness.
And the ice breaks thin.
Who can be held?
Focus unlimited invited in:
such a violation.
This isn’t what was meant.
Calculation process selection
to cull from the hoi-paloi:
an abjuration of dissent.
Surrender so you can begin.
New life is waiting for you!
The chance to escape your sin,
let the light shine through you.
Or would you rather give in
to this deadly apathy craze?
Begins like a firing pin,
leaves like a dream.
I love this.
the flow, the words.
its great.
