Vision Shadows

Their raw originality surfaced to early
Too brilliant for the world and even for themselves
Meteoric, sarcastic debauchery, commercially suicidal
When mediocrity almost always wins in the end

Vision Shadows - Their greatness would not fit their minds
Vision Shadows - Not only a shadow of a vision of future past

Read all about them in the cock-rock press
How could one manage this "Nuclear Overdrive"...?
The Earlier they spark the brighter they burn
Without consciousness of having reached so high

Vision Shadows - A less to be learned, never to be forgotten
Vision Shadows - The war for the future is now!

Their originality was too brilliant, meticulously careless
But mediocrity always wins again and again
