---

A cold dead void hidden under the flesh.

That slack-jawed gaze tells me all I need to know about you.

(Are you even alive?)

Living your "life" 10 seconds at a time, through someone else's eyes.

Through someone else's eyes.

Fall in line.

Hypnotized by the blue light.

Repeat the pattern.

Slip out of existence without a fight.

If I scratch the skin, will you even bleed?

Would you care at all?

Stop and smell the roses, they'll be gone before long.

Stuck in this shell you built for yourself.

To some, even hell is home.

Devoid of feeling, your life has no meaning.

(Drifting through life. Not a care in the world. Unable to recognize the beauty around you until shown the filtered version through a screen. No opinion of your own, no emotions to show. A modern day husk of a person. What are you holding on to? Just let go.)

Slowly wasting away just like a carcass under the midsummer sun.

Would you care at all?
