(M P WEISS)

Success begets loneliness if you're not careful, this is a cautionary tale of what success can really make you feel like if you get there by turning away relationships with your friends and family...

Verse 1: Silver chalice, no-where to go Mansion palace, no-one at home I could try and, go outside But my soul is burnt and I feel I betrayed my kind Started at last, rose to gold Left my past, had to unfold My glass was empty, and now it's full But I lost the very thing that made me warm cos now I'm cold Chorus: I used to cry, with a shoulder I still cry, but now alone I want to fly, but there's a boulder I could fly, but won't grow older Verse 2: Big golden hoops, no-one to see I saw my doom, but didn't flee I stood my ground, it wasn't me Success could corrupt the entire deep blue sea Flowing dresses, intricate seams My life is perfect, or so it seems My head is filled with, perfect scenes But the truth is none of that ever happens to me Chorus: I used to cry, with a shoulder I still cry, but now alone I want to fly, but there's a boulder I could fly, but won't grow older Verse 3: All my sounds, are distraction It covers ground, but only fractions I make a sound, followed my tears As I live out the worst of all my dreadful fears Picture perfect, but only framed Picture perfect, but see the pain Is painted early, but then replaced I wish people could see the first version of my face Chorus: I used to cry, with a shoulder I still cry, but now alone I want to fly, but there's a boulder I could fly, but won't grow older Outro: Nowhere to turn, things to burn I flick on the lighter and fall into the urn

Dystopian Nonsense

This piece is about how blind we are to see that the authors that were terrified about where technology might land us has landed us here already. We live in a dystopian society and there's nothing we can do about it now...
