Facing the Stillness

Glimmering devices push away the silence

Connected we appear, but inside the hollowness keeps growing like a germ

Invisible disease that we for now dismiss

Connected we appear, the self-PR machine is singing same old song

New message, new opinion, one step closer to delirium

Connected we appear, like through a space machine we travel continents and cities, but only with our minds

Our hearts and bodies left aside

Connected we appear but we all fear the quiet, the moment when we let the loneliness intrude

If only for split second to charm the speedy thoughts

Connected we appear, until facade is broken, and stillness comes like uninvited guest

It sternly stares at us with longing and forces one long deep reset
