Self Control

annoyed of SELF CONTROL
controlled by the insane 

defined by its people
the chemicals changed

its the anger in your mind
that despised 
all the rest

screw it,despair and ashes
suit it best

its the refused realization
a sick portrait 

of the young world with
a crooked mind

its like she plays innocent
to pass the time

what she lost
is sent to no return
the only thing that lingers

is her annoyance
of self control.
