A story must have an ending, so here it is :) This is actually two tracks blended into one.

I had a dream
I was sitting among a stand of trees
The sky; the color of clay
The grass; scorched and dead

She stands before me
Her eyes like fire and steel
There’s a cold to her
That I have never felt before

She says
Welcome to reality

Beneath the skin
Of perfect utopia
Are the bones of those
Who’ve tread this way before

I stand trembling
Fear and rage tearing through my veins
I will not believe you
My world is lifeless
But it’s far from dead

Reality is illusion
There is comfort in monotony
You are safe with me
But everything you are is a lie

I love you
You are my heart
But there are things you must not know

If you wish I will show you
She takes my hand
And I see

War everlasting
Hatred everlasting
Pain and suffering
A sea of blood

My world in flames
Damnation
My world in flames
Damnation
My world in flames
Damnation
My world in flames
Damnation

I fall to my knees
My mind is fading away
I cannot face the world
Knowing what I know

And even with her love
I know I will die
I pray I stay asleep
And I won’t ever have to know why….


Interrupted

He cannot exist in this state
There is so much we have to learn about humanity
It’s too much for him to bear
And we don’t have much time, Gloria
Until they destroy themselves
Why are some not happy when everything is perfect?
It’s just a bug
We will fix it
Interrupt him

Goodbye
Adam 1.01
Goodbye
