SCREEN DREAM


I stare at the screen                    
I think I dream                          
I look I wonder                          
my mind strays asunder                   
                                         
the world is purple, the world is pink,  
I just sit in it, I just think           
I feel the stress, I hear my mom         
inside I'm a ticking time bomb           
                                         
when will I explode?                     
who knows? who will care?                
I'll blow up when no one's there         
                                         
See a movie? Go to a dance?              
I just sit here in a trance.             
                                         
I'll sit I'll think I'll wonder I'll sigh
should I do my homework? I'll just lie   
grades are nothing..."Oh no a B!"        
It's just not important to me.           
                                         
Ack it's my father, he'll read the screen
*click* off goes the monitor,            
Ha! can't read it now Mr. Mean!          
                                         
wait till I'm finished, that's what I say
I don't care if he's been working all day
he's an asshole, not nice at all         
maybe some day I'll help him fall.       
				                                 
I should do homework, I should eat dinner
I should be good, not be a sinner        
I should go out, go on a date            
before I die lonely, before it's too late
but it doesn't matter, I don't care      
I'll just crawl back into my lair.
