to take what you have
whatever it is
I just don't get it.

Trained for a world
that no longer exists
whatever it is
I just don't get it.

I read the eyes of the selected ones,
those presented in rectangular light.
They get it, you get them.
They are awarded
for they connect with you
or the person you think you are
and deep down
you forgive yourself
because you get it.
At least that is what you are told.

Meanwhile
time takes a little bit away
each and every single day

until the world you know..
The world you get.
Doesn't get it any more.

I don't have what it takes

Trained for a world
