Counterfeit World Poem by Sven Rhoads

Walking in the concrete tomb of another day
Its fatal place to passively accept
To go with the flow
Just another night that I want to wipe away
Dont need another goddamn regret
So let me go

Your plastic face and your hollow soul
Over the course of time it takes its toll
Pathetically trying to recapture youth
Its so much easier to turn from the truth

How can I look up when its all dragging me down
When I walk in desolation cause no one's around
Dont smile down upon me when I sense your lies
In this pseudo world that wants me to obey and abide

As the quicksand tries to keep pulling me down
While they just keep on passing by
Am I invisible
Turned every corner to find one more ghost town
Existing in a place where I'll never die
Am I invincible

Let your love lay at an arms length from me
Before your poison turns me into what I'm not
There has got to be a better place to see
Before this pseudo world ties me up in knots
