I Hate Tickets

You keep telling me that Love rules

Then why does your life suck?

Why can’t I feel that love?

Other people seem to smile so much

How come I can’t pack that punch?

What happened to feeling special?

I’m sick of special when

special is belittled in our world

My gosh, all I see is sadness on TV

The favorites rule the world

and I sit here hoping this bottle

will bring me a smile

People worship

because they are afraid

because they are poor

Rich people don’t worship

They go to make more money

I’m sick of this feeling

I want to shout out

but then I’ll be crazy

People like to worship

because they are scared

‘cause they are in pain

I don’t want that

Yesterday, I found some money

and then saw a kid on TV die for a crumb

Today I got a parking ticket

This ticket that drove me to madness

to question my life

Why does this happen to me?

Getting parking tickets

to drive me insane

to feel like I'm wasting my money away

to come to the threshold of lunacy

Do I need to worship?

So I won’t get a ticket anymore
