troubled by the way we are
burdened by what we can't control
this clarity in which i see things
i wonder, is it a curse or a blessing
rather be a killjoy than ignorant
rather be angry than numb
rather hate, than blindly accept
i work against my own intellect
find the struggle within overwhelming
i've a constant fight with the force fed norm
a mouthful every day since i was born
rather be a killjoy than ignorant
rather be angry than numb
rather hate, than blindly accept
it's getting harder and harder to live
when every action is scrutinised
but, my impact on the world is a constant
so no, i can't ignore it
