Society of Critics~
Stepping outside myself,
I slowly watch the days pass,
With each day ignorance is replaced with pain
As life consumes my dreams I slowly become…
A product!
Serial number and all I am a product
But who is my manufacturer?
Who has made me this way?
Looking for answers alls I see is you!
Shaping my existence just to fit your needs.
Suddenly realizing,
I am grown
Youth long lost to a society of critics
All that now remains is the broken shell of a man
A man who just desires youth,
Youth only found in drunken memories
Memories of a youth long lost to a society of critics~
