The Burl, The Earth, The Aether

you say you want to take the sidewalk you don't want to walk in mud you would make the whole earth sidewalks if you could you'll make your throne of stone and i'll make mine of wood yours will stand much longer but there'll be growth where mine once stood mindlessly marching through squared off rooms you've taken what once was beautiful and encased it in a tomb you know nothing of us you don't create with your hands always planning out your life your life is nothing more than plans every time you speak it's always through technology i'd like to use more senses i'd like you in front of me staring at pictures in small wooden squares do you really expect us to believe that you care? staring at pictures in small wooden squares do you really expect us to believe that you care? (high pitch) mindlessly marching through squared off rooms you've taken what once was beautiful and encased it in a tomb

here come those sounds that i hear in my dreams where astro-logic takes the place of reason all is not well, all is not what it seems star patterns in the sky change with the seasons the warlock sees the watcher through the stars eyes shall see all, lips shall not part when will you die? when will I? someday when young tears turn to dry he could tell you all the truth he could tell you all the facts but he never speaks and he does not react the warlock sees the watcher through the stars eyes shall see all, lips shall not part there really are no answers, because there are no questions we create them in our mind through superfluous reflection leagues of men crushed into dust all great planets collapse and rust only he remains, still forced to watch eyes remain open, they can never shut.
