Evolution

"Evolution"

Locust swarms of thought
Arrest my heart in its play
Am I forbidden to feel
Because of fate's ways?

After pouring myself into a bottle
And drowning in my substitutes
My lover slaps me in the face
Because I am a prostitute

Hating all my neurons
Wish to sever all connections
And see all the sparks
As I fragment into questions

Universe has no place for thought
In the beginning was the pain
I long to evolve and transcend
So it doesn't end the same way

Swallowing the magic stick
I'm purging my systems clean
This mannequin must be ready
For the world cruel and mean

Don't deny me what is mine
I am prone to violence
And I am happy there
Let's not talk in silence
