Insomniac (Pallas)

The world asleep outside my window A peacefull orange glow upon the streets A midnight clear enough for thoughts to breed in And grow into ideas I'd like to keep I'd like to keep I need some friends and conversation The keyboard shapes the words I'd like to share My mind's online for hard communication And open to the wider world aware And down the wire to the server miles away I'm calling out to those who'd help me deal with my insomnia And down the wire at the server miles away A world awakens reaching out to me in my insomnia Diving deep into the flow of information Where I escape from my life of despair I'm free to pursue inspiration While you're contented just to dream in your beds anaware Riding high on the waves of the ether I am alive with the thrill of the chase I could stay in this moment forever And last forever and a day in a hard interface I wish that i could crumble to dust Leaving my body powder and rust I could remain here virtual man Cloned into digits beyond return No one would miss me I am alone Ghost at the window Shadow of stone Nothing to lose And heaven to gain Knowledge is power Freed from my sad Insomnia I am the light shining bright in darkness I am the bearer of knowledge and pain I am pure as the wind in december My spirit burning clean as a virtual flame
