Disconnecktie: The Faithful Vampire

It's taken me 50,000 separate wrecks to get here and

I've learned absolutely nothing. As I'm standing here alone,

upright and motionless, I am drowning in her sea.

The rising and sinking of every consciousness I've ever known

Now detached and disconnected. The endless cycle of idea and action,

Endless invention, endless experiment, endless hope and endless

disappointment. and I thought all I needed was just one breath to stay

afloat. For me it was like...like the breath, the last breath, the

last breath that I never wanted. Any of this.

I never thought that this would capsize,

but this isn't a boat, its a coffin! And now I'm moving forward.

Into the sea...into the great sea.

So I begin with the end in mind.

The cycles of heaven, 20 centuries gone by, come home.

I've fallen three miles now... and I still can't shake this dragon,

but the end is coming like a flood. It's going to be a year for

growing and the greatest amount of forgetting.

My sea is dying, but death is a doorway

and at the very root of me I know this.

It's the greatest reminder. What a broad world to roam in,

what a sea to swim in, so I begin with the end in mind.
