What do you do when your heroes die? And human nature comes alive Allowing faults to thrive when you grow up and realize What you idolize You no longer recognize Staring into their eyes. When you come to terms That all that you've earned To grasp acceptance you'll never find Is from someone that only exists in your mind The one you allowed to be your eyes bc they convinced you you were blind? They lied It was all contrived. You've been deprived But you survived. A puppet no longer, You Have arrived.

Do not revive
