scared and tired

I don't know what to do with all this,
created out of nothing while you sit and wait
problems all-consuming and developed
hanging on to nothing because you've stopped
and wondered why, you had nothing better to do
wandering through the forest of sad faces we are
they told us what to see because they knew it's in you to be
but they left one crucial key out of the puzzle
they forgot you and me, our powers growing inside
living out in confusing behavior, and attitudes
the diseases you get from doing what you want
the eyes don't reach you here, they're up in back
they've found us somehow, we're all we've got
trying so hard to be who you want, and all we've got
is options now, choices and benefaction, background action
we've lost you somewhere because you don't know what it's like
to have the one you've chosen and then taken back in spite
the sheer impossibility of the things we left behind
to the background noise, the steaming hiss,
the call for all to find, to construct a perfect world
is to live on in benefaction, and things are complex
turning time into dollars spent, as you wait
capitalist dreams of betterment
the bitter taste lays sweet in Your mouth
because the truth is never found,
and all around it hits the ground
