about

People are ants. Most of us feel nothing for each other in passing. Someone realizes this and wants to tell people that none of this may even be worth it. The day is over before it starts hence "this is your morning epilogue".

lyrics

"Maintaining The Ants"

I feel it coming on too strong.
At the beginning of the day.
Voices say it won't be long.
It should never end this way.

Must I be the one to tell the others what I've seen?
Their day is over before it starts. But how can this be?

Morning begins, no chance to win.
Ants in your life, open your eyes.
Carry on right into the day.
Nothing matters when the ants are in your way

It's eating you up inside.
Gather your things,
let's run and hide.

Must I break the tragedy to everyone I see.
Your day is over before it starts.
I know 'cause I've seen.

When you think you know your time to leave this place and just go.
Know you're on your own and time moves slow.
This is your morning epilogue.
