Only for so long can I fake sanity
Before I must let you know what I truly hate
The knees of a dysfunctional humanity
Buckling from the system they create
There will always be things I don’t agree with
I’m not about to retaliate
Only history tells how they once lived
And I don’t want a similar fate
Gloom hangs over my soul, so distraught
I’m wrestling with thoughts that I long since forgot
All of this feels like abandonment
When a life of many years is misleadingly spent
The only way to pass the time without their consent
Dreaming of oceans and waves in their eclectic forms
All of my emotions mix from the reoccurring storms
And once they settle, they leave me lifeless and exposed
Still I can’t decide what’s real in this life anymore
I stand with mixed emotions as I ponder the fate of men
Lining up synchronized, each facing their own end
Labor has added up to diminishment of health
When all that was desired was fulfillment of self
My back up against the wall
My head up in the clouds somewhere
I’ve lost all track of time and I find that I seldom care
You could be in outer space
Anywhere but in this place
And I would find you there
