The Life Remote
June 25, 2013
If I had to do it all over again
Well, there’s the mute button
Wait, there’s the pause button
Oh even better, there’s the rewind button
Shoot, how about the erase button
Whatever shuts you up and drowns you out
Suits me
Movie of my life
A parody, a comedy of errors, a blockbuster of emotions
Reeling on the silver screen of my mind
I never signed up for this
So where are my royalties?
I’m past the point of negotiation
How about
No longer you, you, you and
My no longer begging for half, half, half and
I’m gonna take, take, take back
All of what is mine?
Living a life that’s a nightmare
Oh, but aren’t we all in a dream within a dream
I play an automaton of myself
I’m done with this lie
And I’ll be damned if
I’m going to be cheated
Controlled, subdued into submission
Robbed of my best years
Now GO
