Confounded 12/8/07

If a mans intention is good
Is nt it wrong to be restricted by could and should
Living in a society designed to coerce
This frustration each day i rehearse

Me lost in my personality
Circumstances directing my reality
My attention given to what others are doing
When its myself i should be pursuing

Distorted unable to be me
Not liking what the world wants me to be
Believing i ll find meaning in the profound
But right now all it does is confound

Trying to discover that place
Showing the world my true face
But true to myself i m not
Too soon this wisdom i ll have forgot

I ll be looking outside of myself again
Myself and the world i ll blame
In denial and distracted
To this continuum i seem contracted
