you think I don’t understand
but actually I do
in any society
the majority rules
right or wrong
cliques
like peas in a pod
exist
so we can get along
with those we do belong
I’m not as naïve as I appear
my dear
when a reality check showed me
what to expect
I knew what I could say
and what I’d regret
holding the cards
close to our vest
is what we know
works out for the best
sometimes in life
we have to take unusual measures
to uncover its worthy treasures
like who we can cherish
as a dear and close friend
in the end
when
we let down our guard
as it seeks out the truth
protecting ourselves
is the first thing we do
sure
I’m disappointed
about the way things are
but let’s step back
and view this from afar
we won’t shed any tears
they’ll be no scar
now that we’re exposed
we know who we are
games are so childish
even if they’re fun
but it’s time to get serious
in our search to find someone
after all
everyday that passes
we get older still
and closer to Alzheimers
so there’s no time to kill
