I was thinking...

Are we all gust mice in a maze? Are we forced into every thought we have?
School contols us, media contols us, avertiseing contols us, we are under contol all the time!!

I was walking through the mall today and this is what I see everywere:

Consume,Consume, be like this and you'll be happy, consume, consume, were these shirts and the girls will fuck you, consume, consume, love can be bought, consume, consume, CONSUME!!!!!

Is the world going to hell or is it just me?
Then I get to "Hot Topic" a store breed on the iorny of SELLING REBELION!!! How can you sell rebelion?! Everyone I look at thinks there doing what they want and defieing pop culture....well pop cultures happy as long as you consume. So they will sell you the "wepons" to use "agenst" them. Your not rebeling at all. They tell you goths were sertain cloths and are depressed, that punks have spikey hair and mohawks and skatebord and feel apressed , they tell you that homies were chains and baggy pants and are soposed to be tough guys. THEY TELL YOU HOW TOO FEEL!!!!

"FUCK YOU I WONT DO WHAT YA' TELL ME!!!!!"

    Don't fret precious I'm here, step away from the window
    Go back to sleep

    Lay your head down child
    I won't let the boogeyman come

    Counting bodies like sheep
    To the rhythm of the war drums

    Pay no mind to the rabble
    Pay no mind to the rabble

    Head down, go to sleep
    To the rhythm of the war drums

    Pay no mind what other voices say
    They don't care about you, like I do, like I do
    Safe from pain and truth and choice and other poison devils,
    See, they don't give a fuck about you, like I do.

    Just stay with me, safe and ignorant,
    Go back to sleep
    Go back to sleep

    Lay your head down child
    I won't let the boogeyman come
    Count the bodies like sheep
    To the rhythm of the war drums

    Pay no mind to the rabble
    Pay no mind to the rabble

    Head down, go to sleep to the rhythm of the war drums

    I'll be the one to protect you from
    Your enemies and all your demons

    I'll be the one to protect you from
    A will to survive and a voice of reason

    I'll be the one to protect you from
    Your enemies and your choices son
    They're one in the same
    I must isolate you
    Isolate and save you from yourself

    Swayin to the rhythm of the new world order and
    Count the bodies like sheep to the rhythm of the war drum

    The boogeymen are coming
    The boogeymen are coming

    Keep your head down, go to sleep, to the rhythm of a war drum

    Stay with me
    Safe and ignorant
    Just stay with me
    Hold you and protect you from the other one
    The evil ones
    Don't love you son,
    Go back to sleep

    Everybody is trying to sell something and will do anything to win
    It was a dream, not a nightmare. A beautiful dream I could never imagined in a thousand nods. I saw this girl next to me, she wasn't beautiful until she smiled. And I felt that smile come at me in heat waves following. Soaking through my body and out my finger tips in shafts of color. And I knew somewhere in the world, somewhere, that there was love for me.

    everybody wants a magical change in their lifes so weeks of mind will do so.
    There are good things around you can't avoid buying, just don't get compulsive

  • It is not just buying I am talking about. Its the fact we are under compleat contol hear in America. We are slaves to a system. Consumption just supports the system.

    Watch a comertial some time, " Buy this Clearesel to get rid of Zits", that is an other way of saying, " Dont buy this product and no one will like you, the girls wont fuck you, and you will die poor and lonley".We are under the contol of a irational fear. School is the ultement in contol. Just about everything taught there is to contol you. Schools point is to make you a " good little corporet robot" when you turn 18. If you defie the system no one will hire you to work for them and you will die poor and lonley.

    See what I'm saying?

    We all must rebel!! The youth thinks there rebeling and defieing the system, when in actiality there conforming. I stand up and say " Fuck you I wont do what you tell me!", who will rise with me?

    One could argue by saying that if you don't want to buy what they are trying to sell ...just say no. Nobody is forcing you with a gun to your head to buy.
    But are we really capable of choosing...thinking for ourselves ? We all bitch about the same things we are guilty of. Since we live in a society we are bound to be influenced by our surrounding environment and act like cattle.
    I just think humans are not absolutely free to do anything...we haven't evolved enough to think freely.

    I think if we are allowed to we could think that way.

    I say...shop at the thrift store...
    let it all come from within...
    celebrate life...
    be bound to the Earthen ground
    while youre thinking of heaven
    and
    heaven on Earth.

    shopping at thrift stores is cool. when i was little and maybe some now i used to think that all those used items, were once owned by some soul and they are sad now cause they are all used up and no one wanted them and they were given away even though they are perfectly good items and what a waste and i am putting emotions to inanimate objects but i have always done that....and i know that the second hand toaster just wants a home to go to...

    like that kids cartoon called "The Brave Little Toaster"

    Thanks Ali
