Stupid

I'm just a stupid, simple guy

locked inside this caged routine too dumb to find a key

so here I am, scarfing down the bliss

of an average-Joe American who never stops to wonder

if there's more than suburb dreams

of children leading mindless ways of living

with another family and an SUV

Take me from this aging road

where lives subsist the status quo

would you take another swing

if there were something else to be?

why wait until remorse is closer?

Now, the months keep going by

and overwhelming thoughts

of self actualization yield any pursuits

but still I question what "successful" means,

attempt to act accordingly,

won't let access to basic means

get in the way of any dreams in mind

because we all go about our courses

until nothing's left but corpses

what's in-between is yours

Like sheep, we'll follow blindly within fenced restricted grounds

such comfort keeps us from wanting to be woken

a humored population lured in from false temptation

an American Dream formed and never broken down

No martyrs, no re-entries,

no farmers or gentries,

over and out, but it's only begun
