The Generalist

Forcing a judgement call until the fever breaks External forces filter in through the nervous system and the pain begins again Cause I feel diluted through the complexity of guilt Compounded with the tears and the sweat and the blood that’s been spilt Time’s taking advantage now What happened to me, I used to be free Force feeding burdens The expectation, determination Looking but never really seeing The colours and textures fade into one Drowned out by the overwhelming sensation “What else?” My psyche devours me Time’s taking advantage now What happened to me, I used to be free Force feeding burdens The expectation, determination Looking but never really seeing The colours and textures fade into one Drowned out by the overwhelming sensation “What else?”
