Quote:
Sex, Lies, and a Chocolate Genocide
Tattoos. Sex. Drugs. Love. Money. Chocolate. Porn. Democracy. Republicans.
Now you're drawn in, right?
Say them. Just say them
Watch heads turn
For all the wrong reasons
Mind your own business
Too fat. Too skinny. Ugly. Not good enough
Contacts, powders, treatments, diets, creams
Muddied beauty, caked with grit
What you see is what you get.
Sex. Drugs. Chocolate. Genocide. Nazis.
Just checking.
Try this. It's better
I'm better.
Better than who? You of course!
My way or the highway?
I hate my life.
I want to die. My life sucks.
Yeah right. Liar.
Misery loves company.
"Lots of people have it worse girly, so eat s**t!"
Honesty. Cruelty. Honest cruelty?
Or cruel honesty?
Thankful for what we have
Greedy for what we don't
Greedy for what we don't have
Thankful for what we don't
Our wants and needs
Just fear, greed, and hate
Where did all the happiness go?
Appreciating whatever, whoever
Whenever, however you ended up
A monster devoured the world yesterday, for eternity
Too bad we didn't die with it
Guns, sex, scandal, pizza, drugs, lies, martyrs, football, music
All we force feed down our own throats
Never ceasing to gag, to choke, and to
Eat more, until we are never full
Like a bag of garbage we will rot
building up more and more, until the bag breaks
and our world falls to pieces
Or maybe it already did
Not true happiness
He who has nothing has the happiest life
No need to care. Free to care.
That monster got sick.
It died of a stomach ache
We are unhappy always
Our pieces of plastic Hefty bag
We scrabble and claw to fit, to win, to be the best
Always reaching, never grasping happiness
