Until dead on the scene. Bloodstained clothes put on the market. A story, now an anecdote will only take your place. A reputation for nothing. A name without a face.

It seems reality has struck and we’re too unprepared. How do we teach the kids to praise the things we used to fear? When we refuse to break tradition and neglect our own instinct. As long as they wear a name no one objects.

Let’s pretend like the like the harmless banter is nothing of to speak. If that’s what helps your conscience settle, whatever helps you sleep. You know fucking well, your admission makes you choke. You’re just another worthless sheep veiling your own cut throat.
