lyrics

New day
You wake
Earthquaked
Body bound in bedsheets
Head held entirely trapped
Under its debris of collapsing dreams

Straightened out, you hit the streets
Thickly tangled trails of traffic track and trace
The entire tapestries of countless lives
This close-packed global mesh seethes, ceaselessly

Deep in the dense, dark, undead earth beneath
Packed trains shuttle down tunnels
Gas and water pump through pipelines
Cables carry currents

Overhead, planes pace planetary pathways
And, threading through the brains of the living
Billions of thoughts per second commute

Stretched between uncounted catacombs of rooms
Taut wires team with voices and images
As does the entire ether via higher satellites

Yet, see you
Woven well within your secrecy of walls and windows
Believing yourself mercifully deaf
To the sin of such a cacophonous din
