The
way of things
Waves
are for ocean sized regrets
Sail
on by with your ignorance intact
Blunder
your way through the troughs
And
peaks
Who
needs enlightenment anyway
We
go through our every day
Not
knowing our head from our ass
But
if you ask us we are an expert
Listen
to us blather on and on
About
absolutely nothing of substance
That
is the way of things now a days
Just
listen to the talk box for a minute
They
will tell you all about it
But
they don’t have a fucking clue
What
it is really like out there
It’s
kind of hard to skype
When
you are living under a bridge
Facebook
pales
When
your biggest trouble is
Where
to get your next meal
Or
how are you going to get the doctors
To
listen to you this time
When
you tell them that something is wrong
But
if it is something they just can’t see
Can’t
quite quantify
They
may just throw a dart at the board
And
you have to pray
They
get it right this time
Begging
for it to just be over
