Aku Penat : I'm Tired

Jan 23, 2011 18:08

Aku penat
Dengan hidup
Berdasarkan orang lain

Aku bosan
Otakku dibasuh
Oleh ideologi mereka

Aku bosan
Menerima pendapat mereka
Dan tanggapan mereka

Aku seperti boneka
Dengan tali
Aku tak boleh bergerak sendiri.

I'm tired
With living
Based on someone else

I'm bored
Being brainwashed
By their ideologies

I'm bored
Being shoved their opinions
And expectations down my throat

I feel like I'm a marionette
Tied with strings
I can't move on my own.

Paramore : Playing God

There you go. You might feel what I feel right now. I feel like I've been controlled somehow. I think I've been brainwashed. Whenever I want to do something or say something, in my mind was like, "I can't do this. What would other people think of me?" or "I can't say that! I'm not even.....(fill in the blank)" or "I can't say that! What do I know?" I keep thinking about that even though my mind is telling me all sorts of things, flooding me with tons of ideas.

Yeah. Those sort of things always play in my mind. No matter how many times people keep telling me not to care about what other people say, especially when they have no locus standi on you. Too bad. We don't live alone in this world. People do, other people see, other people backstab, especially the older generations.

I don't mind youngsters because I can tell them to STFU and GTFO out of my life. When it comes to older generations, when we want to defend ourselves and speak our minds, we are labelled as rude and juvenile. When we want to express ourselves in certain ways, they would say we are delinquents. When we have nothing to say about a certain thing, they labelled us as immature and apathetic. When we do have something to say, we are labelled as ungrateful lots.

Seriously, I'm going crazy. I can't speak my own mind. I can't do what I want to do.

Yes, I'm apathetic. Not because I don't care. It's just that I stopped. Stop caring about everything knowing that it doesn't matter anyway. As a younger generation, I will always be brainwashed, I will always be controlled.
