Brave New World-Second Sight

When illumination turns into damnation And tentative time is the internal enemy Because those of us who do not fuss Will begin to slowly sadly sanely see And the rest of you who will askew In decadent darkness will boldly blindly be The world is staged and ritually raged As our lives unfold in seductive synchronicity One atom small as one atom temples tall We survive and sail the salted sea For we must find within our mind And yet we get lost in melodic mystery Are we artificial and sacrificial? As the wolves devour the sedated sheep Redundant reruns replicated daughters and sons In a brave new world within a soundless sleep And Heavens tide will always hide Those of us who woundly weep.
