Pissed and Scared to Retaliate
I'm scared and I'm pissed
This job is impossible
I met old boss tonight
and he says I should toss it all
He says I'm too smart
Says to not take all this shit
But my kids are too small
And I can't just up and quit
but I can't deal with yes men, yes women or yes clones
I've tried to crush integrity love average and alone
I can't suck it up, damp it down, do as told
I can't give it up, tow the line and then get old
Jesus fffing christ why is right such an agony
The shape they cram me into will never resemble me
Drunk pointless ramblings with heartfelt cores
Oh my god, is this all, is it selfish to want more?
Never fucking ever did I think of this unfairness
Try oh so hard and be sacked for what you give this
Catch 22, doomed to fail, complain and leave
Or withstand and suffer, battered down until you yeild.
Wheres's lady luck?
The big machine just finished raping her
Not a picture left to paint
For the little ones I'm raising here.
Again idealistic is the last trait to die
Not enough to crush my spirit, but enough to make me cry
Too debilitating much for the corporate fit tonight.
The example that I want to set too hard, but still it's right
The monolith of money
Subjucation of the self
Everything of daily worth
Crushed by gods of wealth
now you've got the handle of
now you've got the handle of what makes you the slave of your own thoughts
heres the fight.............................................
give up
you simply cant win...................
give up
think of you .........................
now that you've got the handle.
Weary
With a fair chunk of trepidation I came back here to read this. Amazingly enough much stands the cold light of day. If I'm getting the right end of this stick, then I understand and agree. The hard part is learning to care less. The caring, thinking, showing, saying too much is a basic building block of me. So time to find somewhere else to share that? - absolutely. Where? No idea
