Mechanical waves travel
But the medium makes them futile
Photons are what I need
For a message across the sea of stars
It wouldn't work, the light is too slow
Cannot control the quantum
I feel the chains on my brain
Can you feel them too
Ethereal, the mystery unwinds
Vibrations make matter of our lives
It's too late to tell her, tell her
I've been gone for years
Are you still alive and well
You never answered my messages of light
Have aeons buried your carbon skeleton
Wait alone for my death
