Conflict of interest

Conflict of interest:

I been told, I been warned, I don’t listen, I wonder what for?
Why would I listen to something, I don’t believe in
Even if I see that it is true, and
I didn’t listen, I didn’t listen I should have… but I didn’t

You’re off; I feel it
You’re tired; I get it
You’re exhausted; it keeps coming
You just one; it’s to many
You’re off; I feel it
You’re done; I get it

I been thinking, I am finished, I want to breathe a bit but… I didn’t
I don’t listen, I told myself this; but I didn’t, I didn’t listen
I think I am done, I need a break; I will take it, I think I need it
I have slowed down; not what I want to say, but how I say it

It’s been; too easy
I am not, that simple
It’s been; to open
I am not, that reasonable
It’s been; too easy
I am not, that predictable

Daddy said, mommy said, you said; and I didn’t, I didn’t listen… I am glad
I am happy; easy is boring… you bore me
I need conflict; it gets me thinking
Thinking about all the things; you didn’t, that I did, I didn’t forget
