~•§•~ Can't Manage a Mile in My Own Shoes ~•§•~
Tried it
Can't do it
Can not be done
So it can't be undone, I'll prove it
Picture this for a minute
Picturesque hides what's not picture perfect
Don't run
It may pay off to listen to the verdict
Incompetent parents apparent
Cinderella's sisters type fit
Concrete clown shoes
Encased in discount mob cement
Bounced check
Inherited emotional debt
My symbolic account
Won't reveal, just conceals most of it
A Zeppelin wreck
Unnecessary resentment, no regret
I 86'd forgiveness
And I'm not looking to forget
The living, breathing embodiment
Of "The crime doesn't fit the punishment"
"Be wary the quiet ones"
I also embody that statement
I am what they meant
A broken degenerate
And no matter my efforts
It's as permanent as I get
I hope this clears things up a bit
