Melancholy Times

13 July 2011 8:50 pm Melancholy times are these Sex and drugs and so called reality tv Teaching children what young adults should know Then watching them die and putting them on a show Pervert them while they are little and young Then keep them under the camera gun Show them sex and give them drugs Put them in rehab and sweep them under the rug I love tv its not that bad Even though they show a daughter being raped by dad We can't beat them so might as well join them Enjoy the poison and fall beside them Music is my life you say But your music preaches death and decay It isn't that bad our parents used to say Now look how not that bad has turned out today WAKE UP WAKE UP WAKE UP THERE IS POISON IN YOUR CUP You are blind and deaf and going the wrong way Stop drinking that poison and throw it all away But alas my family and I are poisoned too We are not aligned the way we are supposed to I am awake but they are not It puts me in a terrible spot I have to stand and stand I will And throw out this poison so my family will heal
