Icebox

by mind.in.a.box

on Broken Legacies (2017)

Cold transmission and superficial conversation.
Bodies swim in vials while minds, in wires.
Cold ambitions with scathing deprecation.
In tangles of neurons and electrical fires.

Stay silent and implant a dream in me.
Across the waves and under the sulfur sea.
I'm even more alone when she talks.
Through two burnt wires in the icebox.

I'm flying
I'm frying
I think that I'm dying.
Through two burnt wires in the icebox.

What sacrifices are made for approval?
Under water in oceans where I've never fit in.
What desperate act can bring the removal.
Of the terminal chipset just under my skin?

Stay silent and implant a dream in me.
Across the waves and under the sulfur sea.
I'm even more alone when she talks.
Through two burnt wires in the icebox.
