Sonorous sounds fell on deaf ears
Then horrid howls drowned them out
Now hearing is a hardship
and listening is a listless lament
The world's ears are in a state
of existential-anacusis
Where it's nearly impossible
to hear anything inspiring
and even more impossible
to tune out the terrible timbres
without entering into auditory-oblivion
The sounds of life
have been diminished
to marching doldrums,
anthems for anthropomorphism,
and desecrated dirges for human dignity
The ears for exalted existence
have been bombarded with blasts
of buffoons, blabbering about banality
of degenerates, deifying degredation
of ignorant invocations of insipid improprieties
Terrestrial tinnitis muffles the
majestic musings of modern magi
and there's nothing more than a ringing
of what was once heard singing
For sonorous sounds fell on deaf ears
and horrid howls drowned them out
So hearing is now a hardship
and listening is a listless lament
Well,
for everyone still trying to listen
for everyone still daring to hear
This lament is just for you
to play and play again
or to turn a deaf-ear to
as you listen for the end
