Sellout
April 17, 2014
We sold our American Dream,
Paid Humanity our fees,
hoping for nothing more, than Tranquility.
But when we counted out the change in our hands, we knew we would never reach their demands.
their dirty mouths, asked for more than we could give.
This is how society lives.
We lived, to sell ourselves to the idea, the idea of the sapphire sea's of tranquility.
