Suffocating life

We drown in a suffocating town

We try to live a life that’s profound,

We work and pay taxes to the man without a sound,

If this is how life is meant to be then I don’t understand

This doesn’t seem much like promised land,

Weary and weak at the end of each day

My body is riddled with aches and pains,

It feel a waste like it’s going down the drain

Are any of truly using our brains,

We work, we eat, we fuck

That’s all we can look forward to with any luck,

This to me is a life that sucks

Maybe it’s time to finally change things up,

But fortunately I’ve managed to retain the love,

For myself and all my fellow beings

And as yet I have given up on dreaming,

It’s time to give my life some real true meaning.

    Some people have left the cities and went to live in eco-villages to find a genuine and not corrupt life. I do not know if they are happy but perhaps it is a possible choice to give the children a different future, which is not the grey of concrete.

    You need to start dreaming again. If you give into despair they win.
