Youthless individuals consequently useless from lack of trying

Easily relieved and therefore easily deceived

Two ambitions

Equally self-serving

Equally unfulfilling

But either a prize none the less

The point of this exercise is simply to reveal the true nature of humanity like a gunshot in your peripheral vision.  Almost outside of comprehension but much more dangerous than the narrowing path our tunnel vision creates.

We've concocted a disaster

A mental crutch for generations after

Disillusioned and aware

Disillusioned and aware

Lets passively float by unheard

Passivity can fuck the world

Solace is solitude in spades

Progress emphatically erased

Fragile forms released into a habitat of controlled temperature and recycled air

Subconscious and thus blissfully unaware

Two decisions

Equally condemnable

Equally regrettable

But either a prize none the less

Time warps our visions.  The centuries pass as we erect cities, societies, and civilizations and suffocate on the fumes of change.  Common knowledge becomes the enemy of truth because these days perception is everything.

We've concocted a disaster

A mental crutch for generations after

Disillusioned and aware

Disillusioned and aware

Heroics of love spoken passionately

Against a backdrop of deceit

Persistence crawls into the void
