This relentless virus has travelled far. Sustained by an eagerness to learn, Our collective ignorance will make us burn. These wandering creatures now breed to unend, Hold claim to a fate we know is pretend. Weak as a feather, we break one by one, Truth will consume, until we’re all gone. Without a struggle, we cannot evolve. No fearsome threat to test our resolve. Unfold into slumber, sedated and weak. Broken by musings of which we don’t speak. Simple souls seek an outward assailant, Greater minds know we’ll fall from within. Slowly we fly, higher and higher, We’ll implode long before the sun burns our wings. Am I cursed with eyes that see? Should I swim in the blinded sea? Is my pain unfounded or just? Can we change or just turn to dust? Our minds are frayed, Worn by all this unrest, Our hearts betrayed, Scorn by men who know best. I’ll wear this guilt like a scar on my chest. Simple souls seek an outward assailant, Greater minds know we’ll fall from within. Slowly we fly, higher and higher, We’ll implode long before the sun burns our wings. We kill ourselves, trying to hide the pain, We burn our souls, trying to find our way, The world we’ve made is slowly killing us, We are malignant. We are cancerous. It’s abundantly clear, for all to see, We hold on too tight to our Icarus plea. We’ve molded hell from this floating sphere, You won’t find any justice here. Is it wrong to want us to fail? To see us sink beneath this blue veil? Is it wrong to want us to be gone? Am I the only one singing our Swan song? We have proven we’re not worthy, We have shown that we’re not true, Oh mother bring all your might and fury, Rip us from this dot, pale and blue. We kill ourselves, trying to hide the pain, We burn our souls, trying to find our way, The world we’ve made is slowly killing us, We are malignant. We are cancerous. #AARU #TheIcarusPlea
