How to be Decent in Words


If I said I see this world in pain It'd be true but cliché. If I said you sin to win It'd still be the same. Choose some new words And speak a different mind. You will always be judged But aim to score high. One writes about that one month romance That blade the seeps deeper in her wrist. Your life sucks, we get it Don't address it to the world. Speak freely but not too common. Spell right and grammars a plus. You're home life is horrible we understand That's no reason to be cliché.
