looking down an empty bottle, into a mirror or even my crystal ball fear of seeing nothing at all
watching
waiting
hoping
turning on to the pacifier
the occupier
the tranquilizer
the airlock with sucking thoughts
so who's time is being wasted
watching someone fall
running around in circles
seeing nothing at all
I want to scream
I want to shout
I want to get up and run about!
STOP WATCHING LIFE
GET OUT THERE AND LIVE IT
we are ruled by you, said Jim
we live around you
we are trapped
prisoners in our own living space
while we watch other people live their lives
Sitting feeling empty
like a glass vase waiting for roses
never received
craving stability
in sleep patterns
watching the world scene in my movie
going for a snack
out of boredom
dependant on a shadow
afraid of fear
I hate to admit
but it is truth
that stands alone
and is unknown in this watching world of tv
Honey
please turn off the tv
I want to talk
I want to be free
I need to hear my own voice
I need to make a different choice.
inside, from inside the cup come answers and truths
thought processes which confuse
but then again, it can be blanked out
channelled from dust to beam to tv screen someone else's imagination
and this is how they are paid
subliminal messages and they are saying
watch me watch me watch me watch me watch me watch me watch me watch me watch me watch me watch me watch me watch me watch me watch me watch me
and then I say, watch me, for I am surely dying
