We're Just Cosmic Background Noise


But we act like our bullshit-filled lives have meaning in the universe...
You’ve briefly attained a venal self-awareness for reasons that, as far as you know are simply random
Arose from somewhere out the cosmic background from which emits the hum of the universal mantra
Your confused memories only go back so far - and they wont extend out for very much longer - either
Yes, the infinite buzz will re-envelop you despite your pathetic, childish notions of a biblical paradise

In the meantime just let yourself be filled by ads and stress out over multitasked inconsequentialities
For all your thoughts emerge as tiny, fractal bubbles which quickly disappear in the surrounding void
You briefly pass a window in an endless dark tunnel and are filled with a flash of astonishing light
Not to worry though, all this foolish nonsense will not outlast your eternal, yet totally fictional, soul

Do not fear their quaint notion of a divine post-mortem accountability - It’s only used to control you
Because you will remember nothing even if your grasping and foolish self somehow is reincarnated
So, don’t count on carrying forward any wisdom, thoughts or remembrances even should it happen
Rather, believe whatever you wish about your future, for disappointment does not exist in the void

Use up your time on petty jealousy, foolish hatred and pathetic hobbies - Cuz it just dont matter!
Dump all the litter you want for it will be incinerated during earth’s demise with the end of our sun
Make all the mindless noise you wish for it can never leave the thin atmosphere we have so polluted
Dont bother saving for your future since even the rich and famous share the identical, empty fate

Though you’ve watched many insects die quickly for nothing you always knew your life meant more
Caught frightening glimpses of a vast emptiness when you were not looking… and quickly turned away
So just keep focus on all those costly but meaningless activities that make your children your friends
Your empty consumerism wont have any consequences so go eat, drink and live merrily – all on credit

Always tried hard to act like you were quite sure there’s more to life than the unending, empty grind
You’ve forever left really important stuff for later cause you’re so damn busy and you still have time
But you’ll be so worn out, drugged up and in so much pain you wont even remember any such things
And not to worry: They will be able to get on with their lives after seeing you off, alone- to wherever

Don’t waste time on such as recycling: For the end of our solar system will totally clean things up
Stop and smell the roses, go for the gusto and live for today cause soon you’ll know nothing: Forever!
Sadly, you’ll miss all the rest of those big games, holidays and special sales, all throughout eternity
But don’t you worry, for you will not feel alone, because there is no loneliness in nothing

You look for meaning only because our brains tell us that things simply should make some sense
And passing briefly through this life and simply disappearing with nothing in sight just cannot be right
Yes, though it’s impossible for your to accept a fate of background inconsequentiality, nonetheless...
Your chirping will die out like the crickets in the fall, with only a bit part played…And that will be all
