Being pecked by thoughts
leaving our brains a mess.
Waterfall tears drip down
our faces.
We're all alone in this world
of madness,
never able to escape.
We're all trapped as a slave
of our own mind.
Forever.

This is inspired on how everyone today isn't the same, pretty much taken over by electronics and trying to be something they aren't. People act different to gain trust, friends, popularity, and promotions. It's getting old.
