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,951Please respect copyright.PENANAUR4BLlSih8
living our lives in perpetual depression,951Please respect copyright.PENANAtXfPSOMJNC
where's the lesson,951Please respect copyright.PENANAP9TkY5ytPd
in being taught,951Please respect copyright.PENANAQWdsDqXVla
but never learning how to question
Count your blessings,951Please respect copyright.PENANAG3xcgQ5mr9
but as to suffering,951Please respect copyright.PENANAEhyWvZI5eU
you're left second guessing.951Please respect copyright.PENANA2iq4i9XxAa
Can't blame your folks or the people buried under the floorboards,951Please respect copyright.PENANA4EFjNa201A
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,951Please respect copyright.PENANA20VkAcx7br
they chew on it,951Please respect copyright.PENANAXZZ6Vyc9Cx
but end up wanting nothing to do with it
pump it through a tube, you don't have to think,951Please respect copyright.PENANACdMsQmH9XK
just blink as the pictures scroll past951Please respect copyright.PENANAkH4NSG0xZf
and all they do is shrink.951Please respect copyright.PENANA4mPB8moKF5
Carry relief in your pocket, 951Please respect copyright.PENANAhymqs0bOzX
escape from a pin drop,951Please respect copyright.PENANAIcU9kHH09O
easy pleasures manufactured so that you never have to stop,951Please respect copyright.PENANAXCqtWj5aQB
constructed sound so that you can feel more with less,951Please respect copyright.PENANAeZX9b9MR91
no need for passion, reaction or an instrument.951Please respect copyright.PENANA8td6LptNzd
Drink your emotions like a potion951Please respect copyright.PENANAnsfMIEvpOF
art made without understanding the notion.951Please respect copyright.PENANAYfzSpgQPHj
Just try harder to feel so you make sure that it's real,951Please respect copyright.PENANAuuoPkXHVw6
those tears for a character are something nobody can steal.
But what about the "mini you" that cries out in your pocket,951Please respect copyright.PENANAMLxR1mscZD
trends, stats, graphs, your individuality docket.951Please respect copyright.PENANAzm3B5TGDMe
So preoccupied with the new that we never learned how to lock it951Please respect copyright.PENANAtLBvnwqFal
away from the thieves who knew just how to make off with it.
Want your safety? Then pay for it.951Please respect copyright.PENANAQISGIv9pIp
While you're at it, work for us,951Please respect copyright.PENANANOcVedVtHX
to stop yourself from becoming our puppet.951Please respect copyright.PENANA9IRfNSY15S
Free mind? No such thing. We made the ideas that you think.951Please respect copyright.PENANAMslitsG1il
And here's the thing,951Please respect copyright.PENANAe8uwKLaupg
all we need from you is the time before and after a blink.
Turn your face into a painting,951Please respect copyright.PENANA82tK4YBs0L
so when you look in the mirror you don't see an animal fading.951Please respect copyright.PENANAPHInO7n2V2
The small jaw, no chin, crooked teeth and pimples,951Please respect copyright.PENANAMILUR6JIyX
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.951Please respect copyright.PENANAeCi0y8sLgW
So just escape to your private world,951Please respect copyright.PENANAK4cVLSwsEw
drink sound, live games, eat words,
and enjoy the show.
