Century Eyes |
| You were not the first to arrive |
| And will not be the last to survive |
| As the pigs and the oxen we bound to the wheel |
| Tear it off, tear it off! |
| You are not the last of this house |
| Nor the first to go over the side |
| Remember the wrecks of those elegant ships |
| «Turn it off! |
| Turn it off!» |
| Look with century eyes till they make you go blind |
| Galloping into the void |
| You are rolling your eyes like a horse |
| All to turn from the beam, from the eye of that screen |
| «Turn it off! |
| Turn it off! |
| With our backs to the arch |
| And the wreck of our kind |
| We will stare straight ahead |
| For the rest of our lives!" |
