this life is based on impermanence
i'm flailing through the sea of screens that demand attention
my eyesight is wasted on things that don't exist
and my thoughts are plagued by lies
that block the words of my surroundings
i won't remember much
this life is based on fleeting pleasures
i'm willingly sacrificing my mind
to a soulless machine
society is built upon a parallel universe
meant to close the boundaries between us
but it seems that it deepens the gap that exists
with those that are on our either shoulder
i may not be completely brainwashed yet i'm struggling to find the clean air
