"How how do I wake up?!" he screamed
the god just laughed and danced to the music
"You know how" he said
"death? it really is just death isn't it?"
"yes." and the god laughed some more
"kill myself or wait? Thats the only way to know the truth? That's terrifying"
"Yes. plain and simple. that's the funny part. that's the joke. face your biggest fear, and you get out of the matrix. that's what everybody is talking about."
he screamed in agony but no one could hear him, not even the god next to him. The god just laughed. "Who do you scream for?"
"myself! where am I? The old me. I died at one point and I just want to go home."
the god danced around him
"death. that's the only way. and I don't care what you do. but there is one thing that will help you get through it. Listen to the music."
"Listen to the music?"
"yes."
so he listened to every note and bass line and guitar riff and word. and it started sounding really good. and the chorus repeated itself...just listen to the music, just listen to the music...and suddenly he found himself to be a zombie like all the rest. and he nodded his head along. and the music sounded so good and touched his soul and kept it calm. just listen to the music...
