I don't feel the need to do this.. (But I'll take a shot)
You could say I'm somewhat subtle
but in this case, this is my exception
of wasted time, in the sense
that we're both better off
turning our backs.
You go ahead and face your ego
what you claim to be.
And while I lost trust in you,
you also lost my respect.
Not that you'd care to earn it back
(If we're assuming I'd give you the chance)
You carry on, having a cry.
Accuse me of shit I've never done
all for the pathetic assertion
that age defines it all.
See, if I were to have been raised
in a white, padded room.
For my entire existence.
Would knowledge still come to me
only through age?
No, your basis on fact,
it's feeble at best.
What person of science
would make such a claim?
And it's laughable
when you wave it in my face.
You expected me to lose my pride
my dignity
and my self respect.
To serve you, without question
you're in for the very same shock
that's rocked you before.
See you've been caught out.
thankfully though
you saved me the effort
when you showed yourself out.
Out of a future
and into your familiar pit
of self-inflicted pain.
But here's the thing
It's your loss and it's my gain.
