Let me talk straight and apply some clarity I realize you like complication and chaos Your thought process is of a recently un-caged animal Being young and open minded are typically good Without the right application it is self destructive Why do you continue to sedate your life You thirst for something real and genuine Yet you set your lens to blur Quenching with useless suppression Why desire nothing tangible, just illusions A life full of double sided mirrors Your favorite trick is disappearing Magic hurts,remember the matches? There is so much life you could give to this world Why be an old unopened wine, selfish and closed Your storm could bring air to failing lungs Your flood would give water to the thirsty Your beauty can shine life into a dying soul When you talk people listen, so what are you saying Why persist on a foundation of mud and sand Putting so much effort in slipping and falling Learn to stand and fight instead of falter Want something permanent? Pour some concrete
