The pool dries
Our humanity slides
Slips past any connecting parts
It's a small world,
We say to each other
Really our worlds,
Just shrink that much smaller
There's not much more,
To say about it,
Except we miss just one other
A beach with no water
Did I drink it?
Or have I fallen?
Are we all just bodies cooking in the sun?
It's a small world,
They say to you
There's never anyone,
We fixate on
In 5 years' time,
What do you wanna do?
I want to belong
They'll never change,
But they're wrong
They look at me
I look straight past them
A great monolith,
Of memories that didn't happen
Exactly how long,
Does I take to connect with one person?
The crowd shouts,
As if from f*cking heaven
"Idealist boy, turn to stone,
'less you think you have a choice
'Cos we'll f*ck around,
We'll plan around
We'll spend amounts
Then we'll let you down
We're ghosts to you now
Follow our prints on the ground"
Neither lovers,
Acquaintances,
A sugar that's tasteless
It's a small world,
They say to you
There's never anyone,
We fixate on
In 5 years' time,
What do you wanna do?
I want to belong
They'll never change,
But they're wrong
