Strands of hair down the drain Passive aggression yet active complacency Boil it down to numbers Quantify the confusion and the Sounds of the scare underneath my pillow Magnified by the very thoughts I choose to fabricate Lucid yet absent I am the maker of my own fate yet I cannot bear the thought of control Like sifting through shades of denim A superficial choice with consequences of turmoil Instead watch the strands of hair congeal And clog the drain
