I feel so lost and empty, I don’t know why
Oracles are murky, fuzzy, coy, unclear
None of the things I want to realize is near
Lately, the world seems to be in chaos, misery
You only need to turn on the news to see
Alas, I wake up every day, the same, the same
Suffering, smiling, going through my day, insane
Knuckle through life, they say, you will be dead one day
Free yourself, it won’t matter, keep those thoughts at bay
Only… I keep losing sleep over the small things
Reality at my door, I’ve opened my eyes
You’ve heard of the struggles, I know you did, liar
Obey your overlord, obey your desire
Upset when the whole world sees all your lies
The hospital must have been worth the world on fire
Originally here to save us, not kill us
So many died alone and many more will too
Already not sleeping, now my friend is not safe
Visualize this, sleeping under the gunfires
Earshot grapevine, heard they sent them seafood, it’s true
Teary laments, no numb to it, ignore it
Heard the same things too many times, too many times
Empathy, bled it dry, can’t feel it anymore
Whirlpool of emotions, non-stop inside my head
Overindulging in useless things, distraction
Restless, I sit in front of my screen, powerless
Landlocked, lust for life, all I want to do is dance
Desperate, seeking to be free of all the guilt
Lost in the algorithm, lost in dog videos, cat videos
Easily sidetracked, but not easily fooled
Turns out, you cannot tune it out so easily
Migraines when I am not distracted, disturbed
Electronics buzzing in the background, sleep mode
Longing for the day where we can all live in peace
Immediately pulling their bootstraps to help out
Vowing to protect their nest, still young, still naive
Eager are the young ones, eager to be free
Goodness is in your heart, don’t ignore it please
Ultraviolence while others are playing dodgeball
Immortal sprouts seeded when the chaos started
Lost to time and short attention span, forgotten
Too normal, almost like nothing ever happened…
False hopes, they’re radio silent, where are you
Reality was always cruel… never this real…
Evenings filled with music notes, slowly going to sleep
Even if tomorrow never comes, please save me
