Fooled them, hoping to seem.
Like the sweat of evil.
But the product of greed, and
It’s not a mask, so be honest with me.
They can’t afford to ignore that I’m a disease.
Practical, since we had to be, and
When they were old they came back to me.
And they tried, oh they tried.
And when you follow through and wind up on your back.
Looking at up those stars in the sky those white clouds have turned it black.
