Stand still in a shifting landscape With old markers that will not translate At all points it seems unstable With no footing I am not able To withstand the endless motion Retain the slightest notion That there is something in between So we dream our biggest dreams And we always try But today's guarantee Becomes tomorrow's lie My absolutes won't stay in line In spite of my coercions Life's doing its inversions Now that I've fallen I find That it's always strange here Always transitional Constant conditional Nowhere to anchor my mind When the rules keep changing All factors stack in tandem The consequences seem as random But don't wait revise the system That violates defies all wisdom My premises won't take this My helpless hands can't make this
