Salvation Is Irrelevant

(Originally written on January 15th, 2004)

Walking with our heads hanging,
It's over and over and over,
The same old pace to the same old routine,
We're all dead. Still we walk.

It's so obvious now,
As these elements hit my skin,
That we are given these choices,
As a deterrent from questioning.

Salvation is irrelevant,
If we are all ghosts.
Constant repetition;
A metaphorical erosion of the spirit.

I've died here before,
And I'll do it again.
As a shadow.

The new wave is satirical,
Your efforts are hysterical,
Your words hypocritical.
This world needs a miracle,

Salvation is irrelevant.
If we are all ghosts.
Because we're drowning in liquid that cannot evaporate.

It feels like i'm screaming in a vacuum,
Can you hear me?
Because I can feel you.

But it's all worth nothing,
Because we are all ghosts.
