I’m somehow here
I could be there
But I’m here
Some have died and they are no longer
We never know when our time will come
We never know and we pretend like we’ll live forever
We live in an imaginary state
We don’t see things as they truly are
We see them through the lense of our own experiences, our own values
We see our place in the world based on what we’ve been told we’re good for
What we can do and what we can’t
We follow the rules
Some are good and some are harsh
Some bend us and some break us
But we still follow them
Even when they make us cry
Even when we want to die
