Selling Out

04 Aug 2005

Quraz
I’m selling what I’ve got,
I don’t think I want to use it any more,
Honesty, strength, integrity and various other character flaws
Truthfully not traits one should possess now days,
Perversion and backstabbing are the order of the day.
A few shining lights in a vast stagnant sea of evil,
Slowly going under, one by one.
Trying to avoid the reefs and sandbanks
Whilst trying to save a million lost souls. 
A brave captain is not enough,
You need a shifty navigator as well 
To keep your ship safe.
I’m selling what I’ve got 
cos my light is slowly sinking.
I’m selling what I got but no one’s buying
cos the price is too high.
