Weirdness

Look around seeing nothing in everything before me
Life seems to get smaller as the world becomes more consumed by itself


The fancy eats the shabby, unless it's chic and we watch while kids cry behind us
This place isn't what it's supposed to be, this is just crazy


Hiding doesn't take away the fear of the unknown
Something is lurking just over the horizon and it's terrifying


Wonder how long it'll take before everyone wakes up to the dark
Blinded by the nothingness we've projected onto ourselves


Torture, tortured...what are we, animals?
Moving slowly, creeping, trying to out stalk the stalker


But we fail in our purpose as our ADHD washes over us
Steering us into a different direction away from safety and deeper into the dark


Washed in the fire we've created
Doubting the subjects we've out our trust in


Summoning the strength we're too lazy to use
Trying to control a world we've allowed to get outta hand


The old wish for the "good ol' days"
The young wish for money and fame


What are we doing? Who are we fooling?
Only ourselves, only the fools we've come to be


Chasing a dream we can't truly fathom
We've sunk into the darkest of deeper holes...


Only a miracle can get us out!
