I scrambled for the television,
Hoping that my favorite stars
could stop this endless night
I waited for instructions,
I listened very carefully when
mathematicians counting crumbs
Some were filled with angry lust,
the rest felt mostly numb
The sun became the en emy,
And kill time swapping partners at a club
Those who spoke of doom impending,
Had found the place in people's heart
that beauty had once touched
They filled the auditorium,
the tickets far from cheap
Those that couldn't get in
started fighting in the street
Just like that it happened,
the starling blinked its eye
The molecules collided and
All my life I've never known
Like space that's being emptied
at the same time that it's filled
I woke up to the sound of
German hip hop in the air
insects nesting in my hair
but I felt that I should sleep
So I closed my eyed and mumbled
something about a soul to keep
