I'm Tired of Containment
biting into blaring fire alarms
I used to hear in the middle of the night
silence is over rated when you can find quiet in loud
you keep speaking about a family vacation
and I keep drowning you out
in thoughts of far away places and depression
but you haven't seemed to notice and I'd rather not interrupt your enthusiasm.
So what is it about being so self righteous we create our own truths and feel like soft rain or something beautiful when we realize it
when I realize it
I don't want to be a hypocrite but it's so hard to shield yourself from ignorance
I could sink ships with your fake misery and the crew would actually enjoy it
because of how annoying you've been
sometimes I want to speak up when you say how cultured you are
when you say you know all music but disrespect me every time I get an artist right and you don't
every time you make fun of unknown
I want to vomit or scream or deteriorate before your eyes
and even then you wouldn't get it would you?
No, It does't seem so
