EGG SHELLS
What has happened
To the masses
Trying to pretend
We're put into classes
Does it really matter
Who you partner with?
To whom you have a natter?
What advice you give?
Are all lives the same?
Don't you want peace?
Maybe no one's to blame
For past atrocities
These egg shells are weak
Careful where you walk
They act so unique
sensitivity as you talk
To quote Raye the singer
In her classic hit
Society is an index finger
Pushed against your lips
Afraid to speak
Afraid to post a view
To walk the streets
With attacks from the few
