Temple of the Burning Sands

All Too Human

There was a time when I was cold
Every memory frozen and still as a photograph
When nothing could touch me; I had lost my soul
My eyes were deserts without a single sorrow or laugh

I could not talk and I could not hear
The only thing I could do was communicate
Transmit data at electronic speed
Bits and bytes stripped of any kind of love or hate

I felt so clean
I felt like I was iron
I felt removed from impurity
I felt like I felt nothing at all.
