Alive but lifeless, wretched and woeful
Frail ghosts enshrouded by the fog of torpor
Humble and meek, enthralled and subdued
Superfluous and oblivious to enslavement
Worthless subordinates, acolytes of futility
Inferior drones blinded by the shadows of dusk
Sheep led astray, lost and weak
Fall into line, falling, falling...
Avert their eyes to see not the truth
Cover their ears and speak without words
Limbs bent backward to defy a stride
Oh, to exist in blissful ignorance
I challenge the passage of time
And question the illusion of life
With its myths of apathy and ecstasy
I reject this myopic delusion
