the point

maybe there is no other way to say to you today that i don't want to play delusion and dismay so take your rulebooks and your clay and make some other disarray in your own image you can pray someone like me might go away when someone like you comes to stay... but even if the whole thing was a lie... we can still dream of seeing eye to eye...

standards too high for this world at this time
life is the point foolishly declined
maybe find solace amusement in rhyme
meter allows thought to be left behind
all but the one line clearing the mind
in this moment this world is resigned
to be so inclined to leave us behind
fears at this time so acceptibly blind
miss the point and get left behind

selling delusion and calling it kind
the tables can turn never to find
we are the world we bade declined
and in the end we missed the point
and were all left behind

so caught up in how we might be designed
we missed the point and got left behind

waiting for something we may never find
we missed the point and got left behind

born with two eyes we closed to be blind
we missed the point and got left behind

fearing the truth we pretend lies are kind
we missed the point and got left behind
