Far from the sun
My bed starts to melt
I rise and float, gazing down
Trying to remember where or why
Never really had a chance
I exit through a broken window
An ocean of speeding faces underneath
Blending into a gray lump
All looking up at me
The crowd moves in unison
I look closer and it’s your face
Printed on every head
And all your faces are watching
Flying above our city
Streets mangled with guilt
Breathing the sickness
An anti-world world
In another place
Far from the sun
I’ll be washed by darkness
A silence will put me to sleep
In my dreams there will be nothing
But a lone tree standing in a field
Where I sit and wait,
for Armageddon
