You were taught From a young age To collect your money Save for the future You were taught From a young age That anything you can't see Doesn't matter And so you go through life Collecting your money Being very frugal Never over-spending But now comes a time Where you should spend Spend the time you Never did But old habits run deep Deeper than bone And so you continue To play your medley of insanity You keep stockpiling Your pile of material goods But you ignore Every one of my cries for help What are you saving for? You'll die soon anyways Live life while you have it Don't forget it when it's gone I feel trapped In these ways I still have a life to live And not here, no When will you stop? Please Please Stop.

Idek not the best poem
You were taught From a young age To collect your money Save for the future You were taught From a young age That anything you can't see Doesn't matter And so you go through life Collecting your money Being very frugal Never over-spending But now comes a time Where you should spend Spend the time you Never did But old habits run deep Deeper than bone And so you continue To play your medley of insanity You keep stockpiling Your pile of material goods But you ignore Every one of my cries for help What are you saving for? You'll die soon anyways Live life while you have it Don't forget it when it's gone I feel trapped In these ways I still have a life to live And not here, no When will you stop? Please Please Stop.
