No One Knows

Blind, Oblivious, Bastards

 

 

I see you all, I hear you all, I know you all

You do not see me, you do not hear me, you do not know me

 

 

You speak loud words of nothing

I preach words of wisdom

 

 

You strut your figures, with a misunderstood confidence

I walk with strength, with a fighting confidence of true self

 

 

You laugh at other's weaknesses, and search for every fault

I hold those falling, and find goodness within all

 

 

You study for scores of numbers, from which will prove your worth

I study but fail every test, I am evermore worthy to the gift of life

 

 

You follow idols, of every movie, music, and radio fame

I follow my lord, and every angel, ancestor, and guiding soul

 

 

You say I am annoying, a bitch, and depressed

I say you are blind, Oblivious, bastards

 

 

And it is ever so sad

 

 

So here we are.

I am an outcast, a weirdo, and loser

 

 

I cry tears of sorrow for my brothers and sisters so lost

I see their inner beauty fighting, reaching for the sun's energy

 

 

But they are brainwashed and become Oblivious

Blind to life and the true beauty of nature

Blind to the horrids they sometimes unknowingly create

 

 

And our helpless world is dyeing

The bastards poisoning it, ignorant to the suffering

merely lost, slay the earth, seeming cold and without love

 

 

So here we are

the few souls shinning

living a tragedy of frustration

 

 

I have two hands to create

A mind to think thoughts

Legs to carry

A heart to love endlessly

And a soul to always be found

 

 

Why do we not use these gifts of life properly?

Society deems the dreamers insane

We are insane enough to change the world

Crazy enough to save the world.
