You can see
There are less stars in the skies now
It's because of all the undiscovered species we are driving to extinction
and some we knew about too
Things are going to get worse
I thought you'd like to know
But I was wrong about that
Now and Real don't mean nearly as much anymore
we could Now have entertainment!
Reality just makes us so much more uncomfortable
but some kind of digital on demand programming
that's the thing
even if it makes us cranky in the morning because we stayed up until 3 am again on youtube
and our relationships with our lovers and children suffer so
and afterwards the emptiness of entertainment leaves us forgetting how we spent the last 5 years so quickly, always busy, never even getting to do the things we use to have some time for
Each star was a person born into the world,
there were millions and billions
there use to be so many more, enough for all of us
but now we have gotten richer so we have less

out in the wilderness that doesn't exist we fly our airplanes and suvs
we look at that photographic sky so deep with
all those stars
how come they are on the grid too?
