Wires
Dedicated to Our Own Faltered Minds
Oh, the wires that help us,
That connect us,
That bond us,
The silent noises that erupt from connection,
The shocking sparks that hurt our bare skin.
That connect us,
That bond us,
The silent noises that erupt from connection,
The shocking sparks that hurt our bare skin.
Surounding us at every turn,
No way to count them up,
Laying out to bring down the enemies,
Both giant and human.
To think of our own creation,
The wanting to develop,
The true realization of a doctor's desire,
Merely brings all things to fire.
