Fate is but a curious pattern of twists An ode to the memories you'd rather forget We are two halves Two parts of a whole Chaos ensues when our union is full Modern day ecosystems are meaningless We're a draconian species destined to go extinct Bound by the theories of renaissance We grab all we can and do whatever we want Primitive and limited, foresight is prohibited A far cry from the eyes of Egyptian pyramids Here comes a blight that weathers no fight Everyone going in different directions Like sinking ships that pass in the night No politicians plan beyond the next generation Just until the extent of their own destination The cupboard runs bare The well has dried up Millionaires groom their heirs The muck has run amok But the maiden was fair Now we're all sitting ducks The hourglass fills up at the bottom Government bodies are callous masses of atoms

Fate is but a curious pattern of twists An ode to the memories you'd rather forget We are two halves Two parts of a whole Chaos ensues when our union is full Modern day ecosystems are meaningless We're a draconian species destined to go extinct Bound by the theories of renaissance We grab all we can and do whatever we want Primitive and limited, foresight is prohibited A far cry from the eyes of Egyptian pyramids Here comes a blight that weathers no fight Everyone going in different directions Like sinking ships that pass in the night No politicians plan beyond the next generation Just until the extent of their own destination The cupboard runs bare The well has dried up Millionaires groom their heirs The muck has run amok But the maiden was fair Now we're all sitting ducks The hourglass fills up at the bottom Government bodies are callous masses of atoms
I don't hate anyone at all and still hold out hope for humanity, but I've lived long enough to take note of trends and patterns across the globe. Have a great day/night everyone!
