Vanity

Sunday, September 17th, 2006

What do you have to offer?

So much demands, countless contemplations

Wanting so much out of me

Where in fact you can’t give much yourself

 


Material things, stupid and shallow objectives

I’m not made up of magazines

I have books and dictionaries enough to fill a library

Consolidating and enriching my tiny brains

 


I’m not sure where you got the idea from

But this life is not all about the superficial

I’m worth more than that, I’m proud to say I’m real

Not waiting to be fed, not wasting time staying around

 


Can’t you see that there’s more to life?

Unbelieving your artificial state, here I am left in ponder

You waste your time for the unthinkable

Wasting time, wasting dime, wasting life

 


Why bother existing when you’re not living?

Why bother displaying when you’re not representing?

All of your inappropriateness is making me sick to the stomach

If you can’t use your life, then give it to someone else
