Extinction

We all go through life, one moment at a time. No one considers the present. Blinded, yeah. Too focused upon our yesterday. Too focused upon our tomorrow. (pause) Broken dreams and silent screams. Shattered mirrors, windows, and lives. Broken words, promises and circles. Wasted time, actions and deeds. (pause) Extinction.

I’ve lived without her love. Years spent dreaming in darkness. Time spent in hot pursuit. Starving, yeah. Seated at a fine banquet, watching others eat their fill. (pause) Broken dreams and silent screams. Shattered mirrors, windows, and lives. Broken words, promises and circles. Wasted time, actions and deeds. (pause) Extinction.

We all go through trauma, one moment at a time. Choices made that which define. Lost, yeah. Too focused upon our greed. Too focused upon our needs. (pause) Broken dreams and silent screams. Shattered mirrors, windows, and lives. Broken words, promises and circles. Wasted time, actions and deeds. (pause) Extinction.

I’ve lived without any hope; years lost chasing material gain. Time spent in benevolent service. Bleeding, yeah. Running away from my needs. To the point of exhaustion. (pause) Broken dreams and silent screams. Shattered mirrors, windows, and lives. Broken words, promises and circles. Wasted time, actions and deeds. (pause) Extinction.

We all go through challenges, one choice at a time. Repeating one mistake after another. Ignorant, yeah. Too focused upon funny papers. Too focused upon numerical hoarding. (pause) Broken dreams and silent screams. Shattered mirrors, windows, and lives. Broken words, promises and circles. Wasted time, actions and deeds. (pause) Extinction.
