Metaphors, Baby!

DYSTOPIAN LOVERS

Remember mid-July?
I wanted to eat the world
With great wishes and hopes
With great wishes and hopes

You revealed that I
Was the chosen one
For you I had looked for
Last couple months or so

But you did all your life
You said, "You must trust
Because you know that road
Not where you'd like to go"

Oh yeah, can you total recall?
Our family photos
The beautiful children of ours
No worse games to play anymore

Now the world's eating me alive
And I'm not here anymore
But not officially gone
Nothing more, nevermore

Buildings and skyscrapers made by
People who don't know shit about architecture
Black, shivering, overthrown, abandoned
As far as here so for me you'd come

You had found me in the dark
Amidst a black, dying world
Plagued of outsider-hunter robots
With your hand I was withdrawn

And I'm shivering, terrified
All I know is I need to go back home
Only way out, healing and comfort
That place doesn't exist anymore

Dammit, you had saved my life
Two resilient human in a fort
Not even a shelter, a home
Standing up in a falling world

I'm sure every day I've died
Ever since you were gone
But for you I'm still looking for
And I will, forevermore

You're looking at me behind the glass
Run mad, cut through, but before I can reach thou
Shivering cry from the depths of my lungs
You break into tiny pieces and dissolve

Real or not? I'm too mammoth for this site
Been shoot out, I break the walls
Structures explode like little suns
Tumultuous, gasping, reality is broke

And I nosedive, I nosedive
Straight to the cracked floor
Clawing, desperate to hang on
The world is falling apart

And so am I.
