thrill

Incredible feats of agony
Hunted down by fearless cats
Average citizens slave away
Vexed by lies that sound so good
Entertainment value down
Letting prices soar
Only the rich get famous
Small, unimportant things
They do are more important
Maybe it's just me
You think it is
Toughness counts
Ruthless sweethearts
A dime a dozen
I never understood it
Nobody wants to die
Only have fun
Fun and games
Till someone dies
How's that feel?
Observing an omen
Unlike you've ever seen
Ghost of a man
Hammered to a stone
That's 75 feet below
All for fun
Nobody wants safety
Dull and stupid
Moans the molding mass
Yet more intelligent
Can we really be that dumb?
Let's die for a thrill
Outrunning a plane
That heads toward a cliff
How about it?
Everybody's doing it!
So you try
And what happens?
Remember what your life was like
Expectations crushed by your stupidity
Self-expression with a toll
There's no expression in your eyes
Instant death
Lack of realization
Looked back to see
Dumb faces staring back at you
Really felt cool then, didn't you?
You felt accepted
Impaled on that stone
Nothing mattered except
Gaining acceptance
Do you feel it was worth it
As you lie in hell?
Maybe you could call time-out
Maybe do it all over again
Increase awareness
That would have been smart
All you wanted was a rush
Let them give you that
Little push
That sent you crashing
On that rock
How does acceptance feel?
Envision their minds
Little puny things
Later destroyed by stupidity.
