RUPTURED AND EMPTY YET HOLY

******** #DontBeAGerkoff ********
All we have in mind and all we’ll ever have, it’s all you’ve got, me too, that’s it and that is all
Complete Truth for the essence of the Lie, meaning nobody knows anything about Man’s fall
If it was all good, not much to do, if it wasn’t we’re evolving pieces of dope, a matter of breath
We can mutate the gene pool and select for the immortality gene and then live without death.
Form of shape and atoms of matter become all there is until they dissolve into the cosmic pea
Vibrato from one tone to the next, bottom to the top of the scale from A, B, C to G arpeggios
From above and below the thin lines of the atmospheric pressure and mysterious creation
Mean mind can’t follow the subjects acting on the objects, manufacturing more predication.
Shut down but still ready to hang ten on the next wave, it’s comin’ as sure as the sundown
Sharks comin’ in for snacks and I can see them surfin’ the edge with me, near my bit of bone
Shooting for the sky and way out of my mind, never thought of printing the genius’ logic
Lost in cyberspace, holy nowhere at all to survive on a hard drive’s software, lost it, tragic!
You should know better and you do but you just ignore the power of the wisdom, pretending
To be or not to be in charge of whatever happens to you, day in & out, ad infinitum badabing
Ma and pa did what they could since they were just kids themselves, evolved into naked apes
Still without common sense, unearthly aliens left it behind the rock-deep, fake purple drapes.
Trippin’ over the feet and impasses that the 64 squares allow, my King’s hushed by the Queen
Moving on up or gettin’ down with it, as long as you know the Ends are still comin’ in poraids
Don’t let on that you’re aware that the whole shebang will end before anybody knows it came
No wind and no rain, no revolution and no animation at all, the cartoon ends, the song fades.
