we're all good at escapism
we hide ourselves in books
we live on movies
we breathe music
we devote ourselves to anything
when will we step outside
and take in everything
the people, our environment
look around
and see humanity for what it is
rather than conceal it all
we can't spend our lives scared
let's be
let's not rely on other things
to keep us temporarily absent
