Importance

We’re all losers in some way We’re all liars and cheaters and fakes Conniving, contradictive Even if only on one occasion Now let’s all stand up and admit it Forget your pride Hold each other and cry it off Let the whole world know how hard life is But don’t tell someone else their pains are unfounded Comparing them is like comparing birthmarks That’s not what’s important Let’s all have an emotional breakdown Just this once Let each and everyone know Just how f-cked up we are “I can’t find solace” “I can’t find hope” “I can’t communicate” “I can’t listen” “I need drugs to quicken my deadened pulse” Let everyone onto your flaws Hold each other and cry it off Whatever it takes Corny Cliché Whatever That’s not what’s important
