Breaking the Silence

All the words I make with sounds

with a canvas of silence

a rage of emotions come out

like peace provokes violence

 

Free the mind

leave all the quiet order behind

our feelings shouldn't be disguised

and our thoughts should be realized

 

Be free as possible like a patient escaping a mental hospital

crazy to think you can't prove sanity when there so many normal's in humanity

unrestrained growth could help us realize we have anywhere we can go

doesn't matter what we think we know because it's the experience we have to be shown

 

Life the way it is now is growing tired and the art is uninspired

then we give our money to the liars

who will keep their jobs because they will never get fired

but the money for its' power will always be falsely admired

 

I know I'm crazy for what I believe

but we're all in the same pool of people who've been deceived

it's getting pretty crowded and I wish I could say **** it" and leave

though I know for a while this is where I'm going to be

waking up every morning chasing the money while convincing myself somehow that I am free

thought about keeping this private because it doesn't feel finished, but maybe it's okay the way it is. The rhyming is corny I know, not particularly my strength. But it's out there now:)
