The dangling conversion
We talk about nothing
And make it sound like pride
We want the god damn freedom
And God to be our guide
We preach about morals
And emblaze ethic rights
We bow to politicians
Then take the drugs at night
We see ourselves as equals
We set the records straight
Empathy is in our prayers
But we won’t give up the hate
We claim to be the prophets
Of the prophecy of hope
But the world is so much clearer
When it’s dangling from the rope
Our Earth is staked out dogma
We’re divided into race
The loved one is a traitor
The friend a mirror face
Concrete faith
Why bother chasing to emulate someone else's praised practices, when we won't bother to evaluate the belief-system that built them? Cloned method blocks will crumble without the hardener of conviction.
Crock
See you later, procrastinator.
Aunt Penny
I've been around a long time, and you know, when you've been around a long time, you see people who are older. And they've survived this very complicated life, that we've all been given, to figure out. What are we to do with it? We have these children, we have this...
The Convert
Exploiting the intro- and extraverts of the world.
Matter
Searching for materialistic authenticity = hipster. Searching for non-materialistic authenticity = ?
Acceleration
Things are pending so fast and changing focus without notice. So fast. Emotions are swiftly crushed into moments of fear, then spread out quick as lightning over time into bits of experiences. So weird. When all we have are thoughts, more abstract than graspable, what do we hold on to as reference? There’s nothing. Humans are provided all the tools to conspire grand imaginations, but denied the ability to comprehend the consequences.

I haven't been so lonely I haven't been so cold I haven't been so angry Since before I wasn't told I can't mind I can't mind I can't mind no more I haven't been so dirty I haven't been so small I haven't been so fucked up Since I threw open the door I don't mind I...
Know way
I want to know What way to go To avoid the fear And evil I hear Crowded and hollow I just can't follow The simplest line To a silent mind What can you do To escape you? Repeating echoes Of final let-go's When fading starts In minds and hearts You know it's true What...

Clean sheets, dirty life
It's hard to hear much, the sound of life is so loud. Society street runs close and noisy in front of us, like a tv with full frequency range, without a remote. We step out on the rational sidewalk, lit with endlessly blinking and clanking machines. Middleway...
Black Urban Death
We're so close And the shell's so thin But the splitting and the grinding Keeps us whipping up the grin From across the shining street There's a perfect line of stares Filled with winding steps of faith And a blinding gaze of doubt It's so clear The breaking, stopping...

Unarmed
I sometimes lost my keys as a kid. I notice the scale of loss has grown.
The Wanderer
Song by U2 from album Zooropa I went out walking Through streets paved with gold Lifted some stones Saw the skin and bones Of a city without a soul I went out walking Under an atomic sky Where the ground won't turn And the rain it burns Like the tears when I said...

Miniversum
"The Universe, as has been observed before, is an unsettingly big place, a fact which for the sake of a quiet life most people tend to ignore. Many would happily move to somewhere rather smaller of their own devising, and this is what most beings in fact do....
