Deteriorated faces in desolate places Derived of faulty choices Empty bodies waiting to be filled Hopes and dreams long since discarded have now wilted and dissipated Formaldehyde has kept us jaded Sterilizations have left us faded Toil for the likes of those unseen The front door has been locked All the little nuisances have been stocked Are we looking for a way in To what we've been promised? Are we looking for a way out Of what we've become? Written November 18th, 2001 © on Nov 18 2001 01:21 AM PST   0 • 1
