My job is destroying my shoulders , but , since our current ship of fools otherwise known officially as " a government " , has left our economy in tatters with a 3rd dip recession , it doesnt look like i'll be going anywhere soon
us homo sapiens us monkeys have been thrown head first with souls and guts screaming against some torrential impossible question with undying begging answers begging more questions we're thrust into this undying roaring rhythm of heart beating and crashing flooding blood in veins a churning rhythm distinct and unbearably loud yet forsaking its own source
we're screaming in agony at the naked raw skin bones tendons gears networks of tubes and nexus of channels us eating up the screams while bellowing them out
the first animal dumb enough and smart enough to exalt both "I exist" and "Why? at the same time
building nothings to climb up higher find a new vantage point to look out onto the vast ocean and declare that it is indeed vast, more vast than permitted by the incalculable computations and measurements within infinite folds of grey matter
and so we climb higher and we crash greater we burn brighter we die louder we scream we love we cry we are a bacterium of "why?"
and so like any star or shimmering glint of a fragment of a spec of sand washed in the ocean or the cosmos we will glisten and then we will shimmer and then glow then smolder
and when the umbers cease to glow beauty will be restored to its innocent beginnings and its apocalyptic endings and confirm also that there are circuits wired and an on switch and of course an off switch
this is what people call the end and the beginning never seen but always known

Read that with radioheads "ok computer" as its soundtrack and they sync'd perfectly. Deep musings indeed Tao

Ack.
Good luck!

Thank you, God.
Good luck!!!
Now it looks like I might be getting the job--exciting and frightening all at the same time!

Thank you sir. And thank you 2ndmouse as well. Dunno why I just felt like writing something spontaneous...
I seem to be torn at the moment between wanting to make something sort of abstract and dark ambient, and then some sort of lo-fi pop thing in the vein of early Beck.
Then I'm thinking of making something combining the two.
And I realise I have no idea how to start writing lyrics.

OH GOD NO.
