The enemy is deep within
Performance of a billion waves
Swallowed smiles sheared skin
How the happy hive behaves
The veil will protect you
From unintentional dismay
Regret imprinted with the hue
Of a shrouded gargled gray
Surprise of vibrating static
A pain we all outgrew
Signals stuttering erratic
In the calm unending queue
This awkwardness we will away
While embracing tomorrow
We can't escape a single day
Of scroll of want of follow
Why would we even care to change
We live like leaking taps
Neatly cubed nicely contained
Clinging to the collapse
The greatest source of doubt
Counts steadily in the wrong direction
Abandoned from within without
Violent means of introspection
Calm comfortable victimhood
Moments for the self to shine
A debt distinctly understood
Children of the copied divine
The grind has never been as grand
To constantly be seen and heard
The perfectly designed
The algorithms all agree
With the incompleteness of your thoughts
What is not yours and cannot be
The gift that can't be bought
The law of things obtained and kept
In the screams of squares we slept buoyant
In unconscious fear collectively brushed aside
Wisdom warped and blurred
Broken rhythms often denied
Desynchronizing
Word for word

You've had this thought before
The flowers on the window sill
The distant sound of a radio
The streets
The grass
The stars
The sky's dome above your head
Everything is normal on Earth
Exactly as it is now
Look up at the sky
God is in his heaven
God is in his heaven
A god who's very very silent
Home awaits
A beautiful serene place
Of mystery
And peace
The one thing you will never find again
All the love and patience of your friends
The tenderness you feel
You no longer live there
Those times are gone
And so are those people
Why did you come here?
Why are you still here?
You don't know
The freedom of finality
That's all you have now
The great see-through world
All things bright
Only you remain
You against the nothingness
It's not fire
It's not ash
Everything is calm
You can only sense the shape of it
A pit opening up in your stomach
A blank space
With no point of reference
Something that has always been there
A new reality
Barely out of sight
Where only one type of motion is possible
The motion of a human throat swallowing
A throat into which the world will vanish
What strange words to celebrate a new world
No cities
No oceans
No mountains
You can breathe now
And finally
