about

This song came about while studying for a history class, inspired by the lack of motivation to study.

lyrics

and a touch is in line
senses moving in time
makes a passage appear
in what's distant or near

but it's dark and I can't see
the pages right before me
and the light just makes me blind
punishment without a crime

and the sentences before me
drag me into history

and pulls me back again
a novella with no end
like a rag doll with no life
with no energy or fight

with my button eyes I can't see
my limbs have all betrayed me
but for now I need the rest
I don't need to move unless
all the scenes I see before me
just drag me into history

in a room without a door
and no ceilings and no floor
and no furniture or walls
is a prison for us all

and the pages right before me
are read now
but I can't read

ignorance sometimes is kind
