Not much point looking back if you're one of the pack
only the leader will see anything there.

Functioning in a dysfunctional way
could be the 'new black',
that's if you're not looking back
at the sun as it rises.

I used to and used too
and used you
to get through, but
never saw into myself.

But it's because I was
prime time and that time
was my time to
shine,

not shiny now and
no longer
looking back at pack.
Ifya ask me what this is about
I'll tell you that it's
not life
but it is a living.
