Demanding
Style means nothing without substance
That’s something money can’t buy
Walking through the world in a trance
Long enough to embrace living this lie
Social outcast learns how to survive
Turning loneliness into independence
Wanting to avoid the impending nosedive
Sometimes caution means ride the fence
Timid people constantly read the room
While they study the human psyche
Pessimistic views in lingering doom
Securing secrets under lock and key
Wise souls are always seeking truth
Trying to reason with their emotions
Hungry for justice wanting proof
Instead of going through the motions
Every example above are the pieces
For a puzzle of relative understanding
Until the urge of self-doubt increases
Sometimes the chaos gets demanding
That’s something money can’t buy
Walking through the world in a trance
Long enough to embrace living this lie
Social outcast learns how to survive
Turning loneliness into independence
Wanting to avoid the impending nosedive
Sometimes caution means ride the fence
Timid people constantly read the room
While they study the human psyche
Pessimistic views in lingering doom
Securing secrets under lock and key
Wise souls are always seeking truth
Trying to reason with their emotions
Hungry for justice wanting proof
Instead of going through the motions
Every example above are the pieces
For a puzzle of relative understanding
Until the urge of self-doubt increases
Sometimes the chaos gets demanding
