Just something I wrote down hastily while out of my mind and unable to fall asleep. No one ever said I was good at rhyming or beat but its something every teenager should do once, right? Although I'm a little late to the party.
Here we are,969Please respect copyright.PENANArcbLtzSpNL
living our lives in perpetual depression,969Please respect copyright.PENANAwV2z74FZLF
where's the lesson,969Please respect copyright.PENANAkgAyxei3H8
in being taught,969Please respect copyright.PENANAFjw0VjLjco
but never learning how to question
Count your blessings,969Please respect copyright.PENANA6S1AFuyKRn
but as to suffering,969Please respect copyright.PENANAWhbCbkfIWR
you're left second guessing.969Please respect copyright.PENANAsCU8EeKPeL
Can't blame your folks or the people buried under the floorboards,969Please respect copyright.PENANAeb8zQuPL8x
but ourselves who left all of the "bad thoughts" ignored.
Too much money, kids of the millennium don't know what to do with it,969Please respect copyright.PENANAZOPY8QKXfW
they chew on it,969Please respect copyright.PENANAkbkwb1sRHv
but end up wanting nothing to do with it
pump it through a tube, you don't have to think,969Please respect copyright.PENANA0YOCFdJhxb
just blink as the pictures scroll past969Please respect copyright.PENANAmyZzUoVR30
and all they do is shrink.969Please respect copyright.PENANA1n0Lsh7R9v
Carry relief in your pocket, 969Please respect copyright.PENANAhczBw1s4Oh
escape from a pin drop,969Please respect copyright.PENANAoxDwGCkpa5
easy pleasures manufactured so that you never have to stop,969Please respect copyright.PENANAUD4uQ3LZcf
constructed sound so that you can feel more with less,969Please respect copyright.PENANApr2hdVeRb6
no need for passion, reaction or an instrument.969Please respect copyright.PENANALkqI04Oilh
Drink your emotions like a potion969Please respect copyright.PENANA20YRMV5Mzw
art made without understanding the notion.969Please respect copyright.PENANAs4UiDjeCXQ
Just try harder to feel so you make sure that it's real,969Please respect copyright.PENANA9xKcMOyEvP
those tears for a character are something nobody can steal.
But what about the "mini you" that cries out in your pocket,969Please respect copyright.PENANAK8pH2ZS3op
trends, stats, graphs, your individuality docket.969Please respect copyright.PENANAoiCleui0Ys
So preoccupied with the new that we never learned how to lock it969Please respect copyright.PENANAsuJ3gCFpu7
away from the thieves who knew just how to make off with it.
Want your safety? Then pay for it.969Please respect copyright.PENANAXaxGYO6KIM
While you're at it, work for us,969Please respect copyright.PENANAxSmGciwdVp
to stop yourself from becoming our puppet.969Please respect copyright.PENANAEwAMtlVh4F
Free mind? No such thing. We made the ideas that you think.969Please respect copyright.PENANAIpKVif1M3A
And here's the thing,969Please respect copyright.PENANAf3Nd91ldle
all we need from you is the time before and after a blink.
Turn your face into a painting,969Please respect copyright.PENANA3iLbRGydOp
so when you look in the mirror you don't see an animal fading.969Please respect copyright.PENANARbFW3visuv
The small jaw, no chin, crooked teeth and pimples,969Please respect copyright.PENANAmrJQeI5vmO
give up a few weeks of your life so your smile can finally have dimples.
Now I'm not saying the world's finally ready to blow.969Please respect copyright.PENANA0ZtV7jWikK
So just escape to your private world,969Please respect copyright.PENANApe0AvbnOaw
drink sound, live games, eat words,
and enjoy the show.
