the problem of induction

do you have your wits about you

when you climb into your bed?

do you pray for better days

as you try to clear your head?

 

we are all the same someway,

i assure you.

though we try to find a way

to ignore the truth.

 

as the huddled masses gather

and try to find their grace,

they tell of one to saves us,

to take us from this place;

but somehow still the tears, they fall

and they gather by the graves

of the ones that never made it,

introduced to unexpected fate

 

where have we gone?

where are going?

you can’t it take it from us

please, don’t take it from us.

 

not this.
