Disposable
5/27/03

I guess when my gum runs out of flavor
And the texture is so hard to chew it hurts my jaw
I throw the gum in the wastebasket
Just like the Worries that haunted me before
When proven wrong, I learned how silly it was
To hold onto them, so I left them to hang
In my closet with the Old Wants
That now seem so useless. Why did I want them
In the first place? They�re piling up
In a shoebox on the top shelf.
The Bad Memories were choking me, so I purged them
Into the toilet and flushed them away, to be used by someone else
The Wishes that I wished for, that now I wish
Didn�t come true. They say to be careful,
But I�m not one to follow rules. Rules and guidelines were created
To be revised, bent, exceeded, removed
For nothing is made to last
Everything is disposable
