i'm terrible at this
we both are unfortunately remiss in
this thing called life
i wreaked of cigarette smoke
you talked
and told me what
the world meant to you
i laughed and joked
i hummed a stolid tune
followed by a myriad of compliments
but you and i both know
compliments are
just
a simple disguise for hidden
intentions
intentions we're scared to admit
cause the world has got us caught
up with social standards
standards that our
fathers and mothers followed
standards that we still follow
standards that we are scared not to follow
you laughed when i said this
i laughed when i said this
we both can't stand saying this
