Boredom overtakes the senses

Coating reality in a thick blanket of unearthly fog

Slow motion steps

Sluggish tones and notes of voices

Ringing out in the nowhere of perception

Such perfect deception

Of an unrealistic reality

Of escape

Unknown

And happy

Loved

And despairing

Too many people

Jumping around in the mind

Trying to decide

Who knows best

No one knows

What they want

And no one knows

What they need

Who has the right

To change another?

Who takes up the position

Of unforgiving dictator

When the world crumbles

At the feet of the unknowing citizens?

No one can stop this

Horrible deception

No one can take up the shield

And defend this lowly world

From utter chaos

When we ourselves cause it

Save us

Deliver us

Forsake us

Neglect us
