8pm. 27th November 2033.

Shanthi has poisoned the greens. Ravi loves greens. She's having second thoughts, but can't seem to move.

lyrics

Unstuck on a Friday night
Reassembled on an uneventful Thursday
At first light ,to watch myself be disconnected
For the very last time

Just a loose-limbed puppet, manipulated
By divine interventional string
That would come to bring
A spoonful of vengeance to the right place
at the right time
To fulfil my destiny

And its so easy
When you're on the right side of the glass
Such a laugh, its unsentimental, but when
You're in the middle, you can't...
Move

Candlelit serenity,
Routine perfection, practiced to deceive
But the shadows tell a different story
In a dance of death and war and fury, oh

And I cannot be moved
Till the enemy consumes and is consumed by
The fruit of an eternity's loathing,
Unsuspecting, with eyes singing to me

And its not easy
When you're on the wrong side of the glass
You can scratch and kick and complain
But you're just gonna have to sit through it all
again

How long, how long, until
You decide to change the channel
And let the sewage seep through
The cracks on the screen?
