*Apathy -
Blissful Ignorance Part II*
The
great thing about bein' a human
The ability to reason
But reasoning don't
work when no one cares
2 parts apathy, one part
despair
-NOFX-
If I went
to see a shrink
I would be
diagnosed with apathy
I sometimes
wonder how I have managed to get this far
Without
suffering
I sometimes
wonder how I can hold back my emotions
I sometimes
wonder where my emotions have gone
How come I
have already forgotten the stab I got?
How can I
go on without remembering?
I don't
have the right to use my reason
I can't use
my logic
But above
all, I have no right to feel,
To
think
To
remember
To dwell
upon
Cos if I
do, I will lose my reason
I will have
to go away
I will have
to be all by myself
Cos then I
will not have to care anymore
Except
about my own being
But isn't
that exactly what I am doing now?
Now that I
have as more than mild case of apathy?
So where's
the difference?
Aren't you
supposed to be beautiful and loving?
But I only
get to see your vices
Which are
slowly killing my soul with ignorance, apathy and
repression
...fuck off
now, with your ignorance
I don't
want you in my life anymore
Take away
the bliss
The fate happiness
The
security
Take away
everything
But give me
my soul back

poem is not inspired from NOFX's 180 Degrees. I did not even know the song when
I decided to write a sequel to Blissful Ignorance, and I
have even chosen the title.
I
don't know where you want to go so go there
