So comfortably analgesic to just not bother trying

so simple to quietly close these tired eyes and ignore all the depressing images
so relaxing to let go this stressed-out mind and blankly disengage
so soon to be so far gone once again, for such a long, long time
so easy to be immersed in their empty, non-stop entertainment
so comforting to grasp for that one more good full glass
so long, it seemed, their skulls laid there empty before they too, simply disappeared

so effortless it is, to blankly let the stressed out mind just go slack
so calming to vacantly be immersed in the next big empty spectacle
so misleading must all of this, far too quickly, surely prove to have been
so appealing to give up any form of real concentration
so soothing to blandly ignore the many vexing issues
so easy to just lay still, until you can move no more

so alluring are their colorfully-vapid extravaganzas
so convenient to help forget one's real trajectory
so very, very little do they leave behind
so comfortable is this easy chair
so soporific are their canned experiences
so soon to sleep, so silently forever, without even one single dream

so obvious that there is no choice but to doze beside the big screen
so fetching are the illusions brought to us on credit
so oblivious the silent moldering of their forgotten grave stones
so upsetting are the empty insights given up to us by the dead
so rewarding to sidestep those difficult considerations
so final and unavoidable nonetheless, is that rapidly approaching endgame

so distasteful their ever-worsening, inescapable situations
so reinforcing to ignore another of those disgusting revelations
so ultimately without the slightest meaning in either, or any, way
so disgusting the images of all their wasted suffering
so peaceful to just look blankly past the many difficulties
so patently unrealistic, to even try and think...for yourself

so bothersome these countless buzzing issues
so restful to cast aside all that convoluted logic
so very, very little remains in focus to look back upon
so confusing is that myriad of choices
so safe to plod quietly along within the mindless herd
so pointless does that make life seem, from such an empty retrospect

so overwhelming to consider that all our noisy drama has no meaning
so stress-avoidant to diligently practice a proud, blind ignorance
so very final each and every corner taken
so unrewarding the choice to try and remain aware
so comfortably analgesic to just not bother trying
so rapidly - so unchangeable, but, at least, with no more troubling decisions
