We kings of analog,Humanity our fatal flaw,Keep on climbing up the walls,Only to fall before long.But after all… All we know…All we know is we don’t know.For all we know…All we know is we don’t know.It’s all we know. We kings of analog,Finding meaningReading betweenThe lines we draw,Keep on climbing after every fall…

Let it Snow
After all is said and done,It’s all we have to show. After all our wars are won,There’s nowhere left to go. After we bow to the gun,There’s nothing left to know. After we blot out the sunWith mushroom cloudsAnd winter is forevermore,Let it snow.
The Pessimist
Fate may beComforting to believeWhen searching for the meaning.But if everythingHas been foreseen by destiny,Then it means nothing to me. If all is for the best,And the hand of providenceAllows no coincidence unplanned,Tell me where you standIn this deterministic planTo make any difference at all? Let’s just say,For the argument’s sake,There are no choices to …
All Right
The serum slowly seeps through bloodstream,Snaking its way to my brain stem.Screaming neurons soon cease fire,My mind finally at ease. And I say… it’s okay, it’s all right. This peace of mind is ever fleeting.I’m always two steps out of touch.When all the knives come out to greet me,I know it wasn’t quite enough. But …
Epiphany
All these thingsCatapulting through my brain…I search in vain,Only knowing you by name.O, Epiphany, why do you run from me?O, Epiphany! You’re something…I can’t quite put my finger on.You’re something…I can’t quite wrap my head around. All these thingsRicochet around my head…I do my best,But you always stay a step ahead.O, Epiphany, I lie in …
The Nevermind
O—I’m seriousNobody seems to mindThe slow declineO—I’m seriousEveryone seems just fineWith the nevermind Nobody’s lookingAt where they’re goingAnd nobody’s steeringAs if they’re floating downstream O—I’m serious One by one, we march contently out to seaEveryone thinks someone else has got the lead But nobody’s lookingAt where they’re goingAnd nobody’s steeringAs if they’re floating downstream O—I’m …
The Payoff
Go sell me, darling,For the best deal you find.I won’t mind, ’cause all I seeAre fading dreams and memoriesOf you and me. Go sell me, darling,Cash out while you can.I’ll understand, ’cause what I sayWill keep you waiting for the day,The day that I’ll pay off. But I’m only dead weight,And the future’s looking grim.And …
Ode to the Overboard
O—every weekend is an island.I’m just trying to float ashore.O—every Sunday is an eyesore.Get ready to sink again. O—off the deep end…O—off the deep end, again. O—as I try to swim to safety,The water fills up my lungsO—and the current overtakes me.One moment more, and I’m done. O—I might as well…O—I might as well let …
Sinking
I’m a sinking ship,And buckets just won’t fix this.Women and children first.The hull’s about to burst.Watching it all fall apart on my…Watching it all fall apart. It’s only broken in my head.It’s never quite right in my head.It’s always broken in my head.In my head. Can’t you see?I’m losing speed.Friction fights the inertia,Pulling me down. …
