The Eclipse

The earth the moon the sun    
Aligned in perfect harmony    
When light becomes undone    
This centuries old prophecy      
A moment with the absence of light    
And darkness overtakes us all    
The middle of the day is night    
Halting our life to a crawl    
We stop moving and we stare    
But don't look directly at the eclipse    
We were warned to be aware    
Blindness at our fingertips    
What is the world hiding    
Why are we not allowed to look    
The rules we keep abiding    
The thoughts we never shook    
Programmed not to ask questions    
We are already provided the answers    
Provoked with simple suggestions    
Brainwashed with thoughtless cancers    
Finally it's safe for a moment    
As we look at the corona    
Praying for our atonement    
A halo of the suns aroma    
A brief moment where we are free    
And a chance to escape the storms    
But right after back to reality    
As we tune out the sounding alarms    
Back to our emotionless lives    
Back to society where we're enslaved    
An eternal eclipse were darkness thrives    
Back to our my minds depraved
