Strained by entertainment
You're strained by entertainment
It's Absorbent
Storing information
Like a landlord gathers rent
Isn't it evident?
Flicking through the tube
And eating up the news
Delaying the movement of progression
And replacing 'em with hospitable clues,
Of a new day
Talk in constant haikus,
Got a due date
Destroy the entity inside
Before its too late
Strained by Entertainment
Those Advertisements detoured you
Into an avenue of your primal desire
And back fired with a payment
The craving of desire
You're standing in the fire,
The subconscious monster
Bought prospects in the mire
It took rules from the spire
Three points to balance you
The only way out is through
Progression halted
By another distraction
It subtlety controls you
Slowly diluting intention
Until there's only one point directing you
The anticipation of reward
Prisoning us until we anticipate nothingness
Yelling in the locked corridor
Hoping time will conveniently open more
Lessons from lust and wonder you explore
In a series of dreams
Free of the mind directors chemical realities
Strained by entertainment
Absorbent
Storing information
Like a landlord gathers rent
Isn't it evident?
