Will there ever come a time
  when a moment doesn’t matter

Will there ever come a date
  when the days won’t connect

Will there ever come a phrase
   its words devoid of meaning

Will there ever come a song
  whose melody won’t play

Have you let what you celebrate
  turn into celebrity

Have your messages been transformed
  into a billboard or sign

Have you become a lonely caricature
  of a free and lasting symbol

Have your words become mere chatter
   —in a pandering for fame
