Life is Hell, So is Society
May 19, 2016
You start at point A,
You end at point B.
Life sucks you up like a twister,
It spits you out like debris.
You Live, you love, you laugh.
But somehow still, your heart is in half.
People Live, People Die.
We breathe in, We breathe out.
We say we’re fine,
Even when our mind is full of doubt.
We brush our teeth we brush our hair.
Don’t you wish you were a millionaire?
It’s funny right?
We all bow down to money.
We’re all in for a surprise.
Oh, just you wait honey.
I guess this should be the end.
It seems only right that it would be.
Only, Society has one more surprise.
Turns out you can never be “free”.
