the extreme middleground


... it\'s all gonna end bad, right?
It always does, why would anything change?

It\'s all regurgitations and complications...
the circle of life isn\'t really respecting time anymore.

Where did the concept of bliss go?
Or catastrophe...?

We\'re all just walking in the middle nowadays, no?

The bland superiority prevailed...

Maybe it\'s all in my head... it don\'t matter for me...
... would it make a difference for me if it was?

You start out life slow... crawling and expecting nothing...
once you start walking everything turns to dust...
high expectations and low turn-around...
you grow and everything changes

The expectations shrink day by day...
... \'til you realize you expect nothing out of life
and that it\'s the only expectation you can see fulfilled.

You yourself shrink in definition...
... the importance of life versus the fear of death,
the concepts change place... fear of life and longing death...
Why try when each day feels like slow suicide...?

It\'s, let\'s say, problematic to alter that state of mind...
not impossible but it takes time you don\'t have and
effort you can\'t imagine you\'ll ever have... \'til you do...

Eventually you can forcefeed some crumbs of faux-meaning,
lies you believe out of necessity and truths you ignore.

And there we have it... the extreme middleground...
nothing to the left and nothing to the right...
plastic smiles all \'round and boredom made useful in the
so-called creation of words and carbon-copied statements.

That\'s it for today...
