IMPRISONED MINDS
July 24, 2017
Everybody was the same
This world seemed to be insane
Harrison was just a child
Who committed suicide
Everybody was confused
They just looked so unamused
Father couldn’t think ahead
With this radio on his head
Mother had so little brain
That she couldn’t feel the pain
Everything was just so bad
Like directed for an ad
Everything was just so boring
That this future got me worrying
I just think that it’s a shame
Everybody being insane
