track 3 of 9 from the 2019 album "lunacy + the second naïveté" by closetjudas.

---

can you think of a time when you didn’t exist tell me then what do you think of death... if you weren’t who you are before you were born is there difference at your final breath?

it’s clear from all things we’re here + then gone yet, you argue that our mooring’s fixed our depth is slight, subcutaneous candles burn so long as there’s a wick

we anxiously speak to each other in code trading candor for mendacity digging bunkers below, or missiles to board chronic reaching for infinity

we recognize the light is decreasing final equinoxes have been passed and the darkest day will endure, unending with each night longer than the last

if you think i’m mistaken, that there must be more and convinced you know something i don’t it might be worth re-confirming your sources you should, but i know you won’t

you’re content with the solace of a simulation flipping off your mortality but what if all there is, is all that’s here no afterward to this story?

you can’t believe, intent + purposed to fight it i’m not there + my white flag has burned because of a lasting, disastrous picture like a page which can’t be unturned

if somewhere above there’s a cosmic control room it’s vacant, or there’s a sign flashing “d-n-d” + the door is locked.
