With my mind's eye I disassemble certainty
To get at the thought in the back of my mind
Is there something wrong with reality?
True and false undefined
Is there substance behind our sensory input?
Or a tapestry drawn tight in front of our eyes
Is there something else beyond our perceptions
Are we not in our own universe?
If your mind
Is held down
By preconceived notions
External world
A futility
Forever out of reach
I descend into a deeper state of being
Cognition dissolved through a shift in perspective
A secondary consciousness starts to form
Transcending time and space
With the edge of infinity erased
I reach out beyond my immediate self
With all senses clear I perceive
The hand of the creator at work
If the world
Is truly without purpose
Accept instead the absurd
In defiance
Salvation
May yet persist
Personate
Divert the attention
Simulate
Fake incomprehension
When matter rules over mind
Ignorance is truly bliss
Play along
Roll the dice and continue
The game of life
Break the trance
To see what lies beyond
The edge of the horizon
Take the leap
Step out of the box
To awake in the outside world
Skepticism washes over me
Contradiction in duality
Deluded or disillusioned?
Either way I have to break free
Convinced now of the untruth
Permeating the natural order
In nihilistic insight
Aspiration is superfluous
If your life
Can't be defined
By actions undertaken
Open your eyes
To this unreality
And face the loss of who we are
Break the trance
To see what lies beyond
The edge of the horizon
Take the leap
Step out of the box
To awake in the outside world
