Drazen days abrasing me
to launch myself into delinquency.
The selfish truths we plead
and cry no heed,
to those who beg for our attentions.
The masses play to the puppeteers whims.
They dance this way, they spin that way.
They fall and rise and stumble through the lies.
The whole while everyone laughing inside.....
Believing themselves to be superior.
What foolish games we live by here.
The present now has lost sight of it all,
their "souls" are lost,
and wandering farther from whats real.
I am alone here in this place.
The place they carelessly erase.
Where shall I go when all is gone?
No where to be, no more song.
I seem to be the only one with resistance....
I am trapped and can't find the distance....
To place between myself and their existence.

Ever been in a public place and look around and see people going about their daily lives. Like if they are in some perfectly normal world where everything is the way it should be. Like there's no hunger and starving and war and dis pare. Like they are better then everyone else and deserve whatever wealth they have. Society doesn't care what its doing to our planet or our species. People just allow it to happen and go along with it and do what they think their "Betters" tell them to. I can not get my head around the sheep mentality that our society has. How the people of our nation flock and follow without question. Is there nothing inside that tells them this is wrong!
