Homogeneous mechanical melting pot Fluorescence blinking a thousand times per second One blink for every person that walks by One by one, all in a line they go by But in the blink of an eye They’re gone All of this Destroyed And none of them even saw it coming They were far too wrapped up In their own excessive decadence To realize They’ve outgrown the collar that binds them They’ve become too fat for the ring around their necks Choking to death on their own gluttony A combination of community and celebration Taken way too far, and far too Extreme to last longer than a little while The excess was burned away And God wiped the earth clean In the blink of an eye They blinked And the next thing they knew They were gone So treasure every blink It may just be your last
