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,701Please respect copyright.PENANAoS3SNLLoE6
living our lives in perpetual depression,701Please respect copyright.PENANAQt37HaBVBZ
where's the lesson,701Please respect copyright.PENANA0QZF34cziX
in being taught,701Please respect copyright.PENANAVmyYxpDpEj
but never learning how to question
Count your blessings,701Please respect copyright.PENANAr0cmQ4dXdC
but as to suffering,701Please respect copyright.PENANAjCdwAqT8ZI
you're left second guessing.701Please respect copyright.PENANAFEZXrGxw0b
Can't blame your folks or the people buried under the floorboards,701Please respect copyright.PENANATUR1gFILPN
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,701Please respect copyright.PENANA4OYRRyjNLn
they chew on it,701Please respect copyright.PENANAllDOmmLSCL
but end up wanting nothing to do with it
pump it through a tube, you don't have to think,701Please respect copyright.PENANAmlvPf2SYm0
just blink as the pictures scroll past701Please respect copyright.PENANAX14MC9IyzE
and all they do is shrink.701Please respect copyright.PENANAaBcQOvLXvl
Carry relief in your pocket, 701Please respect copyright.PENANAP9vZ81aPOZ
escape from a pin drop,701Please respect copyright.PENANA55di44xOSP
easy pleasures manufactured so that you never have to stop,701Please respect copyright.PENANAbk7ofLFxkK
constructed sound so that you can feel more with less,701Please respect copyright.PENANAl8y7fE4exg
no need for passion, reaction or an instrument.701Please respect copyright.PENANAVKuaPvGqhE
Drink your emotions like a potion701Please respect copyright.PENANAH7zKkI3Hot
art made without understanding the notion.701Please respect copyright.PENANAI8479DoVSI
Just try harder to feel so you make sure that it's real,701Please respect copyright.PENANAwSPs1BJDSz
those tears for a character are something nobody can steal.
But what about the "mini you" that cries out in your pocket,701Please respect copyright.PENANAa7PvGpdQkk
trends, stats, graphs, your individuality docket.701Please respect copyright.PENANA6iiVIYRIfj
So preoccupied with the new that we never learned how to lock it701Please respect copyright.PENANA0K1seEMeou
away from the thieves who knew just how to make off with it.
Want your safety? Then pay for it.701Please respect copyright.PENANA0ms3YWK6If
While you're at it, work for us,701Please respect copyright.PENANA4NouqBIflL
to stop yourself from becoming our puppet.701Please respect copyright.PENANAJZuoEAuIKo
Free mind? No such thing. We made the ideas that you think.701Please respect copyright.PENANAjXOJcYg4fI
And here's the thing,701Please respect copyright.PENANAbceHpoCvBU
all we need from you is the time before and after a blink.
Turn your face into a painting,701Please respect copyright.PENANAYZBWCFohjb
so when you look in the mirror you don't see an animal fading.701Please respect copyright.PENANANmrGw1radK
The small jaw, no chin, crooked teeth and pimples,701Please respect copyright.PENANAKzFggtacPw
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.701Please respect copyright.PENANArZoeinWWrw
So just escape to your private world,701Please respect copyright.PENANA9SfHjIJwLm
drink sound, live games, eat words,
and enjoy the show.
