It's the space between reality and a fever dream
A dark room with a glow
It never truly falls asleep
It's multisensory
It makes itself our home by using images we already see
It shouldn't be that obscene
It organizes nature so that we don't have to think
Enhances experiences
Makes monsters out of ink
Don't want to blink
Escaping it all to walk along the sharpest brink
It's impossible to sink when your
Irises are turning pink
You truly do believe that you could walk for days
And not decay
Circuit boards have become the supplement of the suns rays
To whose dismay?
It will make you let down your guard and tell you everything's okay
The painter has their say
It all makes you stay
We really should be treating this with care
But there's no one who would dare
How long could I sit and stare?
Is it worth our despair?
I swear there's something in the air
And it's not something they'd declare
We can only hope that the illusion won't tear
We'll never bear
