Changed
Open your eyes and look at yourself
Are you happy with who you are?
Are you happy with who you’ll be?
The world’s changed you
turned your innocence and ignorance
into corruption and stupidity
Magazines and tv shows tell you what to do
You live your life through tv
emulating the things you see
One-night stands, drugs, and beer,
whatever they tell you to do
Guys want sluts
Girls want jerks
As long as there’s sex
they think it works
Love is only physical,
emotions overrated
Fidelity and honesty are extinct
