There’s a middle age man he is combing his hair

Glares at the mirror for the youth that isn’t there

It escaped him like poison and he drank it like wine

He never new the consequences at the time

Do I know them…..Do I know?

So society’s poisoned by the phone and the web

Watch the people live their lives without leaving their beds

Just a spectacle for our entertainment

I start wishing there was more to life than just this

But what……What could be more than this?

Everything is ready at the click of a mouse

No one will speak not even in their own house

So they start to forget that they even know the sound

Of their voices when they say hey I love you

They’re lost in their muses

But they’re false and they’re proud

Of the things that they think show about them

But they really say nothing and I’m feeling quite sad

Don’t you know…. You could be so much more

I say hold up a fist to the flame in the sky

And block out the light that’s reaching for our eyes

Cause it would blind us….blind us.

Well I’ve stopped taking time out

To consider these thoughts

And that’s a lie just as true as

I like missing shots

I’m confused…..I’m lost…..Who I am?

We’ll I say hey try me on

Maybe we’ll be the best of friends

or pass through my life

Like a dream through my head

Let’s see if…if I can do this…

But all I have for the moment is a song to pass the time

A melody to keep my humming constant

I rhythm to set an example for these lungs

So I don’t give up and start falling fast asleep

A darkness so permanent that eventually I will greet
