Painful Example

Location

- I know what it's like to "Feel Pain"

Life is a storm, and we all try to avoid "The Rain"

The ups and downs consuming our mentality 

As we try to avoid the "Conception" or "Ideal" of reality

 

 

Deprived of what little sanity we have

Made into something "We're not", for attention we want to grab

Ugly,pitiful, masking our emotions with a bag

Loving the lies, truth in disguise, until we realize we've been had

 

 

Mistakes becoming a repeating factor

The ones that are "closest" to us becoming a reactor

Our "intentions", "dispositioned", leaving us to "Reposition" our lives

Blind eyes, loud cries, misery taking us by surprise

 

 

Reality forever present as "Dreams" turn into "Nightmares"

Distant from living, death so vivid

Imagining a utopia, a "peaceful" world we could all live in

No actions taken, thus we're mistaken, and forced to live in the world we are given.
