When victory is conceded
Love lost
Soul sold, simply, salaciously
Some battles cannot be won
Giving up is a gift
   don't try
Embracing the hollowness
Of a condition most human
Smile at the ants as they toil
Blessed are the sluggards sleeping in their row homes
   don't try
Smile at the ants as they toil.
Life is not hard, in fact-too easy
I scream for more of a challenge,
   living precariously
crashing my car for a laugh,
   living dangerously
overdosing in my bath,
Can you show me a successful life on a graph?
   Laugh at the ants as they toil
