The Simulation
Today
I'm mistaken
Living a life of lies
That tomorrow will be certain
A step down my
Fine line into dreadful
Unknown
Unknown
Painfully so
Wandering through a path
Previously prescribed to me
A privilege
To make my own choices
I fear
I fear
Left to me to
Decide what is better
Blunder is inevitable
And so parents
And theirs before them too
Decide
Decide
Leave nothing to
Chance, God forbid you are
In control of what’s going on
You are a pawn
In a simulation
For all
For all
Any step still
Is a big leap backward
Back into the simulation
We need to get
Out of and help the rest
Of us
