When you've been beaten down, shown the day in, day out, and you just can't take it anymore. This all came to me after work for AT&T wireless. I see things, that make me sad.

Does it make you mad sir?
The truth and the sway
All night long in bed you stir
Feet seem sticky, by the end of the day

Does it turn your head
The sky is a wallboard removed
Aroused emotion from being fed
Sunken eyes from what they proved

Do you feel last in line,
Numbered out by shuffling needs?
Showing up for minute-hand sign
Resigning dream for the hate it feeds

Raise a brow to a master seed
Those who use hope as a razorblade
Naive shock crawls as it bleeds
Point blame on your tripping foot in the shade

(chorus)

The trees aren't as pretty, my friend
Who listens to fears in the end
Why should I try on dreams alone,
When fool proof tactics set the tone?

Sends shivers when I think of my touch
Pretty girls, drugs and sex and such
They've taken human away from me
If only nature would set me free
