Aimless

In this War of Attrition

who knows just

whats going on?

who knows what

lies in waiting

beyond the Great Beyond

who's the man behind the curtain

can I take a peek

just a look to be for certain

out of curiosity

 

In this age of expanding unknowing

control is overwhelmed

directionless and destructive

a madman at the helm

a very steep price to pay

shall we not step n tune

so let your fire in the sky

burn with the flame

that don't consume

your ship will be surely righted

even if your not

keep on for you

a better person

until the ark crashes the top

of the mountain.
