The whole world is high
This generation’s got a new take
They ride a different wavelength
A frequency I can’t take
I’m at the end of my line
Once upon a time
I was ahead of my time
Outlived the lost who all died
And now there’s no one outside
I’m the only one standing in my head
They say that its fate
Like music and social icons
Before you know it it's all gone
And something else takes its place
The legends become strangers
Lost to ancient history
In the middle of the room
I’m not the elephant I once was
Not John the Baptist
Or the boy who called out the Emperor
More like a candle flicker
Or a piece of dust
Disappearing in the shade
Sobriety’s dead
while zombies sing their own song
The melody is all wrong
But it doesn’t matter cuz
They can’t hear anyway…
