I am in a standstill with my life 
Wake up, brush my teeth,
Proceed with zombie-like agility 

All I want to do is sleep 
Isn't that sad? 
The highlight of my world 
Consists of closing my eyes 

I live in some type of limbo 
Where death and life 
Heaven and hell
All things wanted, all things forgotten 
Mix as one, a paradoxical kaleidoscope 

A place where you can't decipher 
One extreme from the next 
The same yet different 

How can this be life? 
How can any of this be real?

We place our lives in the hands 
Of the corrupted and greedy 
Our happiness in paper bills
Leave our thinking to machines 

Sometimes I pinch myself 
Believing this is a dream 

It must be 

My fingers leave a red mark 
But inside, I feel nothing at all 
Nothing.
