America now
Sees mental illness
As something taboo to talk about
Outside of a hospital,
As something to suppress so long as I get that ‘A’,
As something not legitimate next to a broken leg,
The american dream,
"Life, Liberty, Pursuit of happiness".
- The US Preamble
" Thats why they call it the American dream, because you have to be asleep to believe it."
- Goerge Carlin
