watch your life pass like it’s on a film screen
let it shine, every second’s a scene
ignore the cameras, the burning lights, keep being the character you play all the time
ignore the acting and the film reel, the aftermath, reality spilled like a meal
but it’s not true
you don’t know what to do

watch it pass let it all unfold
until you’re out of touch with all the things
you thought you’d known
watch it pass let it all unwind
until you’re just another image cradled by dim light

follow the others, you’re just a sheep
keeping in motion, don’t want to leap
the track of comfort is all that you need
don’t need to try for things you can’t reach
now forget it all
