You write love letters to yourself
How sad
Fighting for attention against the odds
Willing to eat worm and sod
For a better life than this
Willing to even drink the piss
Without a thought or care or woe
Of where you make others go
Because to you life is different shades of gold
You think you can make something new of old
And you don’t think about the soul you’ll lose
Or the people you make swim the blues
You just care about your pocket
Even if you have to stick your finger into an electric socket
You don’t care of the pain you cause
So long as there is bling on your paws
And you can win your awards
You don’t care about the discord
Because you are draped in gold and jewels
You don’t care about stupid rules
Because you treat people like fools
And you know you can get away with this
Even if the wine tastes like piss
And you can sit and smile in glee
For what things you have stolen from me
