The Persuit of Madness
There is a blind rage
hidden in me.
A sure pain,
causing me to black out from everything.
When i wake up,
there may be someone dead
on the floor,
I may have said some hurtful things,
that i would never say before.
maybe i hate you.
maybe i don't.
maybe i’d rather
be left alone.
we fight for things
so materialistic,
instead of fighting
for the young
and the gifted.
love is too dead,
and the people wont listen.
if it doesn't make them dance,
then whats the purpose of living.
The rich always get,
and the poor are always giving.
They say our life's our set,
But i’m honestly tired of sitting.
The world destroys
anything beautiful or different,
So i guess im at war
with a world so belligerent.
we would rather envision
a world up in flames,
instead of making peace
with the wickedly insane.
I’m weird because
i don't act like HE,
Realistically
Im Everything
you're afraid to be.
Were all programed
by the eyes of society,
we wear the same things
and walk amongst like zombies.
we try to look astonishing
for the likes of others,
WE become cliques
that manipulate one-another.
everyone ignores
the chance to think things through.
Its either black & White,
left or Right,
a painted picture
to keep you
from the truth.
there is nothing greater
than the joy of happiness,
But being happy is a fable
in the pursuit of madness.
