peppered with the latest technology
adorn with the best clothes
"you have everything! you're so lucky!"

coming home
to an empty home
spinning round and round and round
with no one to hold you

they say that you're supposed to be happy
but they really don't know that materialism doesn't satisfy the heart or the soul

you're always left craving for something more
and the happiness you feel is like gold that's made of out of plastic

(d.b.)
