Lord I know your there Listening to this prayer As I contemplate this state I know I don’t create Bowing and giving my alms Singing and shouting the songs Skipping and dancing to church We sit we stand we chirp Meeting nice people each day Oh what a game we play You take your mask wherever you go How do I know I’m not at the theater or a show? What a great performance as you gawk the stage And I sit here, trapped in a cage What do you think waits your immortal soul? If this is why you believe, I dub you “the dumb troll” What a fool to believe in such a wrong way You selfish hedonist, you’ll get yours one day Or maybe not, because you’ll never die Maybe that’s what you’ll get, you wise guy I don’t see why one would want to live forever Why is this so much better? You call that state heaven, well I call it hell And no I’m not insane, I’m quite well I think death is good and not so bad Its healthy, and I’m not going to be sad When my body is in the ground And my soul in the air Gee that’s another question altogether, do we even have souls But for now enjoy your eternity with bliss While I take a **** Who would ever want to live forever? Immortality is a dream disguised as a nightmare, think about it…its forever…

Draft One of The Absurdity of Immortality
Lord I know your there Listening to this prayer As I contemplate this state I know I don’t create Bowing and giving my alms Singing and shouting the songs Skipping and dancing to church We sit we stand we chirp Meeting nice people each day Oh what a game we play You take your mask wherever you go How do I know I’m not at the theater or a show? What a great performance as you gawk the stage And I sit here, trapped in a cage What do you think waits your immortal soul? If this is why you believe, I dub you “the dumb troll” What a fool to believe in such a wrong way You selfish hedonist, you’ll get yours one day Or maybe not, because you’ll never die Maybe that’s what you’ll get, you wise guy I don’t see why one would want to live forever Why is this so much better? You call that state heaven, well I call it hell And no I’m not insane, I’m quite well I think death is good and not so bad Its healthy, and I’m not going to be sad When my body is in the ground And my soul in the air Gee that’s another question altogether, do we even have souls But for now enjoy your eternity with bliss While I take a **** Who would ever want to live forever? Immortality is a dream disguised as a nightmare, think about it…its forever…
Stupid thoughts, trying to make couplets out of them...
