Recondition your Contradictions

We put bad people in boxes with bad people so multiple wrongs will make a right, we trust our security with faces that have to prepare a conference to tactically decide how to answer a personal question, we smile and say good morning cause we can be bought, we all want someone, we all want to be left alone, we want the lights to stay on even when we’ve voted for poverty, we want perfection while we belittle the astounding, we’re wearing masks cause it’s easier to be hateful and indifferent than show compassion, while we keep begging for someone to love us, “someone please, I’m so alone, please just some love…really you like that band? that idea, that belief? you’re retarded, you’re weak and mentally below me as a human being, god you actually care what I think? you’re so pathetic, cause I don’t care about anything you have to say, you actually want to help me with my problems? just because I complain every second of everyday doesn’t mean I give a fuck about you caring, that’s weak.” we have always been fucked, we have always been stung, we have always been dumb, and you’ll learn nothing cause no one does, keep building bridges made of match sticks into that black hole mirror i’m just here for the fireworks
