Decomposure - Wide Awake

From an eyeroll to divorce

flipping back to find where it went wrong

signs of hope, double quotes

neighbours gather when the power whimpers out

What if the apocalypse never comes

and we have to keep living with all that we’ve done?

what if the apocalypse never comes

and we have to keep living with all that we’ve done?

what if the apocalypse never comes

we did not understand just how far we had gone

Now we are wide awake

Row by row, manacled

they force their poisoned dreams into our lungs

still as stone, drilled full of holes

harvesting the gravy from our hearts

They cut off a little bit, then they return

and they cut off a little bit, then they return

and they cut off a little bit, then they return

and they cut off a little bit, then they return

and they cut off a little bit, then they return

they don’t know we can feel it

because we can’t say a word

But we are wide awake

* * *

Life keeps going

life keeps going on

pain and beauty

from the same brush

I had nowhere else to go

i drove back to work alone.

...but i still couldn’t stop it

Triangle
