Pack your bags, leave your seat,<\/p>\n
it’s okay to travel with bare feet.<\/p>\n
The scars you gain represent the life you loose,<\/p>\n
so not it’s up to you to choose.<\/p>\n
City skylines or empty forests?<\/p>\n
Don’t you dare stop singing the chorus.<\/p>\n
Because the grass it greener the farther you go.<\/p>\n
Everything’s prettier when you forget what you know.<\/p>\n
It’s not about the life you live, but the one you leave,<\/p>\n
since magic only works if you believe.<\/p>\n
Their movements are breathtaking, I’m sure,<\/p>\n
but being sick with disease is the only way to find a cure.<\/p>\n
Just takes sunsets for example<\/p>\n
they sink and show colours like an ampule.<\/p>\n
And the sky stayed blue because no one cares when it’s black.<\/p>\n
They only care about its dazzling cracks,<\/p>\n
its scars and mutant pieces,<\/p>\n
while poverty increases<\/p>\n
in the so-called city “sanctuary”…<\/p>\n
But you knew that already.<\/p>\n
Because no one cares about the girl with the night in her eyes,<\/p>\n
they writer her off as a devil in disguise.<\/p>\n
But when a blessing comes its less clear<\/p>\n
so we make less room for them here<\/p>\n
and create a difference between good and nice.<\/p>\n
To do anything to “re-roll the dice”.<\/p>\n
Depending on our catchers, we anticipate dreams<\/p>\n
even if nothing is truly as it seems.<\/p>\n
So get away as fast as you can<\/p>\n
and lend others your way a hand.<\/p>\n
Run away now, away from your problems,<\/p>\n
there was no way you were going to solve them.<\/p>\n
Leave your t-shirt, socks, and shoes,<\/p>\n
and live a life of blues.<\/p>\n
Just for a day<\/p>\n
and if you don’t want to stay<\/p>\n
feel free to up and abandon<\/p>\n
all of your phantoms.<\/p>\n
When you return to civilization<\/p>\n
I hope you break all their foundations.<\/p>\n
How do they build lives on pillars of salt<\/p>\n
and claim– under oath– that all that went wrong wasn’t their fault?<\/p>\n
It’s not the tide that pulls them in–<\/p>\n
it’s the idea that again they can begin.<\/p>\n
Trust me, darling, it’s no way to live<\/p>\n
constantly wondering “what if?”<\/p>\n
They’re all underwater and still don’t understand<\/p>\n
just how much they\u00a0think<\/em> they can withstand.<\/p>\n So pull the pin and leave the grenade,<\/p>\n living life like a renegade.<\/p>\n The fact that fire burns and ashes<\/p>\n doesn’t justify their actions.<\/p>\n You of all people should know that<\/p>\n with no destination to arrive at.<\/p>\n You river skunk, downward spiral,<\/p>\n who’s to say you’ll go viral–<\/p>\n but I\u00a0can<\/em>\u00a0guarantee<\/p>\n all but the life of me<\/p>\n if you follow my simple instructions<\/p>\n to society’s demands and destruction.<\/p>\n Leave your ego at the door.<\/p>\n You don’t need it any more.<\/p>\n Every profit is naught but marginal.<\/p>\n Are there empty rides at the carnival?<\/p>\n All these rules and regulations<\/p>\n never become\u00a0real\u00a0<\/em>expectations.<\/p>\n We should demand\u00a0peace<\/em>, greatness,<\/p>\n not all this stylistic lateness<\/p>\n to the party of equality<\/p>\n to stop the frugality.<\/p>\n As our phones die of power<\/p>\n there are homeless with no food, no shower–<\/p>\n and who is there to change it<\/p>\n without questioning\u00a0their<\/em> benefit?<\/p>\n See, darling, how much easier it would be<\/p>\n to just get up and leave?<\/p>\n Let me tell you a secret fast–<\/p>\n there’s no use to mourning the past.<\/p>\n It’s gone now, trust\u00a0me<\/em> if no one else,<\/p>\n while everyone else tightens their belts.<\/p>\n They’re tiny worlds, each and every pixel,<\/p>\n to distract us while every country threatens a missile.<\/p>\n You can believe these words<\/p>\n like you’ve never heard<\/p>\n nothing like them in your life–<\/p>\n soft as a cloud, sharp as a knife.<\/p>\n Understand me when I say<\/p>\n we can live to see another day<\/p>\n because I have a new thesaurus<\/p>\n with thousands of words just for us.<\/p>\n Remember the city skylines and toxins,<\/p>\n because leaving now is our only option.<\/p>\n Or forget it all to start anew,<\/p>\n it’s only sad they won’t see who you’ve turn into.<\/p>\n Step up the pace, I’m already outside,<\/p>\n with nothing but the wilderness as my guide.<\/p>\n It will be incredible to see the world with you,<\/p>\n even if it’s the last thing I ever do.<\/p>\n Every decision is already made,<\/p>\n living life like a renegade.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Pack your bags, leave your seat, it’s okay to travel with bare feet.
