When I was young so much younger than today. My independence seemed to vanish into the haze. A friend offers a flask… oh conformity How do you become so far reaching? Well beyond the walls of the western world. Help me get my feet back on the ground. Morality sacrificed as the flask empties… feeling nothing unity. The rigid and demanding world falls away. Oppression suddenly feels distant. Leaving behind a familiar feeling empathy. But now these days are gone and I’m not so self-assured. Won’t you please please help me.
