Monuments from Dearly Divided by Dearly Divided

Columns to congratulate
Ourselves on this mess we made
Hopes and golden glasses raised
We’ve waited so long
Tedious tranquility
Manages to agitate
We sprout wings and fly away
And we land right where we belong
All that I know

If what we are
Is another failed mutation
Unsuccessful adaptation
Lost our resolve and folded

So welcome to the penultimate page
Trapped in Caligula’s cage
Is it the remnants of our gilded age
Or fear that keeps us holding on?

This alone is what I know
It won’t be long

If what we are
Is another failed mutation
Unsuccessful adaptation
Lost our resolve and folded (What are we searching for?)
Don’t be afraid
We won’t live to see tomorrow, but we’re better off that way
All that remains
Are these lines that make no sense
To serve as monuments to what we are
