It's like picking up the pieces is a daily chore

Thinking of your time card forms a habit

Watching rich folks on T.V.'s like picking a sore

Like a plague of locusts heaven sent

Just a ball of dissension with a death perception

I won't sweat the definition of content

So many people with so much to show
Rotting away in their own little holes

One can only wonder why

But know that I'm not alone

Only fools are "along for the ride"

In thinking of the size of the world that's right outside

Please don't waste it trying to hide
