Be the Zero

Today's the day they take me away in pieces, one by one
to a better place, or so they say, but their lies - they fool no one

It's tough to cope when your spirit's broken and you've lost all care
on the go, but the climb is slow, and you're going nowhere

You're losing time with no reason - no rhyme, kept from futures you want
a sinking dread overflows your head: be the zero, be the none

The undertow is where you'll go, dragged down by the Facebook elite
quagmire of lost desiree - deliquesce; ennui
passed over for another
this is not your dream
no, this is not your dream

Kept at bay by the hearts of grey, coroners, one and all
something's rotten in Denmark; the Bourgeoisie is throwing a ball

Today's the day they take me away in pieces, one by one
reveal the soul, take its glow - be the zero, be the none
be the nothing that is undone
be the zero, less than one
be the zero
