Discarded

Your world threw me away today
It made me run away today
Tried to make me anybody else
Filled me with the drugs of your world
Now it's time to save myself
You love your perfect world
The one that threw me away today
Your world has made me numb
You can't make me anybody else
Your precious cities of light
Your world is a prurient joy
Perhaps but not for this lifeless boy
You want a perfect world
Free of hate
Yet you threw me away today
Left me cold and blank
My plastic smile beaming
You threw me away today
