Watch as the world turns a cold shoulder
Watch as the man stands, hands on head
        dead, silence emits a deafening roar
Watch as the kids pick up guns
        suns expiring, darkening
        the day before it's hour
Watch as the woman morns
        the one she'd adorn means nothing any more
        another 'x' on sheet
Watch as the world numbs itself
Watch as the coward next to you smokes himself
        To Death, too afraid to do it quickly.
        He has no passion watching the cherry lengthen
Watch as the humans demean their existence
        Persistent to vacate the throne
        "Long live Technology!"
Watch as the world takes everything back
Watch as the television melted minds
        fall fast, in-adept
        survival of the fittest on a grandeur scale
        frailty unveiled
Watch through the window
        afraid of life
...just keep watching.
