On the Second Law of Thermodynamics

We’re trapped in an irreversible system
that’s spiraling into chaos,
and there’s no coming back,
flowing like a river
that’s draining out into entropy.

Didn’t you know
that you can never undream a dream?
And the stars will always look the same,
even when your thoughts are
slightly more scattered.

Everything happens in a one-direction way.
In a current that can never be fought,
our lives scream along at the speed of light.
Nothing is undone,
and we are always changed.
