shortfuse Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Accosted with adjectives and adverbs You Cripple me with Clichés Oblivious to the Thesaurus Abuse You use, so Prevailing and Abundant No, Annoying and Redundant And stagnating and dead inside and smiling as if you really had life and a light to guide, but you're empty it’s plain to see, you're empty out of ideas, you keep “renewing your mind” Rehashing the line, tell yourself that s h i t one more time And then another, don’t stop or even breathe long enough to think You’re never too far from the brink You think you play it safe But what you do abnegate yourself by denying your nature It’s not sin that’s within, you were meant to be free, Not spoon fed, second hand, third hand gruel Show the world you’re not a fool and make your own choice The voice in your head it’s not Satan tempting you It’s the voice of reason, and the lies you tell yourself are poison.

Debt Free
Trapped inside a thorny tangle of thoughts
Your conscience is a weapon turned against you
Your own moral strength used to restrain you
Struggling to break free with reason but sinking deeper,
Mistakenly you believed that this evil was reasonable
Let me be clear, YOU OWE THEM
No explanation
You have no obligation
Except to yourself
