Say hello to the start of never
Erase all the writing on the wall
Reel back your rowboats
Build up all your empires
They never fell
And all is well
Everything’s immortal now
Things that don’t happen, happen
And things that do happen never did
Throw away your history books
Tighten up the sounds
Shake hands with your enemy
Because they’re just your friend
And lose your other friends….
Because they never happened
Don’t you remember they broke you?
And when someone cares
You’ll think in serendipitous splendor
Because it will all never happen
It’s all Apocalypse Never.
Please tell me what you think

Opposite day eh? Took a play from my playbook. Who can blame you, its a sweet move. You also seem to be stepping up your verbiage a bit I must confess, there are points where I thought better adjective pairing could have been used, in places like 'things that don't happen, do' and visa versa to me if weak. It gets the point across and is well done, but its not all it could be. I like the piece altogether, what inspired this if I may.

Wow.
This was very very staggering. The way it all built up and ripped everything down right to the end. "Apocolypse Never". This reminds me of the whole 'everything you know is wrong', idea. When I started reading I thought this was going to be about how times have changed so much and our thoughts and imaginings are far less free than they used to be. But now, I'm not so sure.
This seems more like a piece about losing what you thought you had and what you believed in. Betrayal, even? This is really intense.
Also, "They never fell
And all is well
Everything’s immortal now", those three lines, it makes me think of something that goes on a grave. A marker of memory? Just, interesting.

Yeah I was in a very dark mood when I wrote the newest pieces lol. And Yeah you're right...it's about how everything you know is wrong... and maybe even betrayal... I think i decided to use apocolypse never because they always say the apocolypse is coming...and it hasn't yet...so it's sort of a where is truth? i suppose.. idk.. sometimes im too deep for myself Lol
