Copy Machine
Constant images
Or a lack thereof
The darkness in my head
It seems inevitable
Don't worry
I don't want it to end
I keep on coming back and reliving it again
Except what I want
And what I need
Seem to be two very different things
I need to be free
Great copy machine in the sky
Leave me be
I'd like not to return
As a you or a me
I'm not asking for much
Just a moment of peace
And if that moment could last me an eternity
It's all for something, or so I thought
Yo, this might sound
A little pseudo new age
But she spoke to me
We linked up
Yup, we got on the same page
What she told me
Was that it was all for naught
Confirming suspicions
Too many holes in this plot
It's heavy
So, when I put it down
I could use the rest
I'm spent
Burn me
Or lay me down in the ground, but
Great copy machine in the sky
Leave me be
I'd like not to return
As a you or a me
I'm not asking for much
Just a moment of peace
And if that moment could last me eternally
And if it's all
And if it's all for nothing anyway
Anyway
I'll try to keep my wits about me while I trudge forth
But my soul is compressed
It's pinned down
Ball and chained to the floor
Happy thoughts just might
Allow me to fly
But the darkness still remains at the forefront of my mind
Thoughts like
Curtains, dissolution, doom, decease, end, demise
Thoughts like
Expiration, quietus
Baby, the great divide
Great copy machine in the sky
Leave me be
I'd like not to return
As a you or a me
I'm not asking for much
Just a moment of peace
And if that moment could last me into eternity
And if it's all
And if it's all for nothing anyway
Or a lack thereof
The darkness in my head
It seems inevitable
Don't worry
I don't want it to end
I keep on coming back and reliving it again
Except what I want
And what I need
Seem to be two very different things
I need to be free
Great copy machine in the sky
Leave me be
I'd like not to return
As a you or a me
I'm not asking for much
Just a moment of peace
And if that moment could last me an eternity
It's all for something, or so I thought
Yo, this might sound
