Hold your dreams off a bridge and let them go. The World is full of people you don’t want to know.

Life of Dissent

With no idea how I feel, no idea what I want as real, my mind runs in circles like a rat in its cage. False prophet gives his life to appease the desperate folk. With no idea for salvation, civilisation goes up in smoke.
Fighting fire with fire, being abrasive at best. Defying the government, their laws transgressed. Eternal lighting striking down to wreak revenge, causing order and stability, a confidence regained.
To redirect the power is to cut it from the source, these actions are in spite and fulfilled with no remorse. There eye’s are on me, trying to stop me being free. They condemn how I act to make up what they lack.
Pressure to conform so I deviate from the norm, causing expectations like you think you know me. I see you staring, but I’m not caring. Throw your weight around just to leave me on the fucking ground.

Relinquish

The meek shall inherit from the strong, whilst gregarious people live their lives wrong. As a dark rain envelopes everything once proud, modern society waits to be enshroud.
Fighting the force inside yourself. Looking for solace not found in wealth. The pleas of the helpless go unheard and the aim of destruction is not deterred.
The foundations of a once proud aristocracy crumble. Realising their shame in nonsensical battles. A false authority is driven from town and the people’s servitude is torn down.
Remorse clouds my mind that I didn’t find the time to satisfy a feeling, to complete my crime. So scared. So lonely. So awake. So free. So brave. So complete. So asleep. So me.

Out in the streets I feel the heat. The city looks dark and remains bleak. The world has become tedious, society is cruel to us. Frowns form as we pass and they label us as crass. Try to change us with your rhetoric, I’d rather swallow arsenic. Unapologetic, shameless speech. Lying through your teeth like a fucking leech. Fires are set at the feet of the elite. Still hostile we curse at this deceit. I don’t care that I’m fucking deadbeat.

Won’t Succumb to your authority, we’re a self-reliant minority. Fuck your false superiority. Fuck all the posers in society. Lying just to fit in, faking your own skin. Dressing just to impress, using your mind less. Bending your reality, but no one can see. You’re not fucking fooling me. Trying to standout but you’re falling behind, in a trap you set for yourself and soon you will find society is trying to strangle me.
Sick of feeling discontent, sick of having to relent. I’m done with going nowhere, get me the fuck out of here.
Nothing’s really changed, still wage war for pointless things. Abandoned. Forgotten. Run out and rotten.
