Dorian Grays

It rains, it pours

Liquid floor, let's keep score

Of wins and losses

Of lines we're crossing

Exposed dark matter

Lava lines carved in time

We wish to live as long as trees do

But does it matter? (Matter)

Senseless chatter

Scattered shadows of the past

That last a giant's lifetime

Primetime TV

Tabloid magazines

Do we see the falling leaves?

We are left with a sense of duty

That we don't know how to fulfill

Still walking in each other's shoes

Still thinking that it is we who choose

Still the past choosing for us

We are lost in the forest of ages

In the pages of a history book

That we don't know how to write

We are all Dorian Grays

We praise futuristic days to come

And our wrinkles don't fade

We Botox and small talk

And contour and cover up

We look to our mothers for safety

But not for advice

Vice versa, et cetera

Plethora of information

Radiation, penetration

Gentrification

Winner, winner, time machine-a (Time machine-a, time machine-a)

Winner, winner, time machine-a (Time machine-a, time machine-a)

Winner, winner, winner, winner
