….AND THEY PART LIGHT YEARS AWAY

IN THIS CONFINED WORLD OF GADGETS
BOUNDARIES HAVE MERGED LEAVING NO SPACE
YOU SPEND 12 AND I 14 HRS IN OFFICE
WE LIVE WITH OUR HEARTS DISGRACE

WE SHARE OUR PHYSICAL NEEDS EACH DAY
WE LIVE LIKE THE FIRE AND THE ANT
WE FEEL THAT WE NEED TO RUN FROM THIS WORLD
WE TRY BUT WE JUST CAN’T

AMIDST THE DREAMWEAVERS WE FEEL LOST
THE NIGHT PASSES AND THE NOSES SNORE
ANOTHER DAY BEGINS IN HASTE
BOSSES, COLLEGEUES, CANTEEN, CORRIDOR

WHEN THE BRIGHT STARS GLOW IN YOUR EYES
I FEEL THE WORDS THAT I NEVER SAY
YOU & I MAY SLEEP FOREVER
BUT OUR HEARTS PART LIGHT YEARS AWAY.
