Song A Day

  1. Song A Day #398.  “Someday”

    someday
    all the supermarkets
    will be empty
    all the oceans will be
    algae
    and your children will be screwed

    someday
    our collective data
    will degrade
    because our hard drives
    weren’t made
    to last more than a few years

    could have a cave dweller painting on the wall
    known the painting he was painting was
    gonna last
    when we running out of food when the rain
    doesn’t come are we gonna learn and gonna learn
    fast

    someday
    we’re gonna up and move
    far away
    we’ll seed a new
    colony
    in the far reaches of space

    someday
    we’ll find new sources
    of energy
    and the deep long hum
    of technology
    will continue undisturbed

    i know that nothing lasts
    and that change is the only constant
    still in a world that moves so fast
    i long for something solid

    someday
    when the supermarkets
    are empty
    i’ll look in your eyes
    and i’ll be
    comforted by you

    someday
    we’ll make some great
    discovery
    and it’ll prove some long
    held theory
    that deep down we always knew
