Scamper 'cross the parquet floor like impoverished mice
Ramparts we have not seen before dazzle us like neon lights
Being right is seemingly trite when the sea engulfs us all like night
Constant journey leads to more questions, less answers
Slowly realizing existence is nothing but a damn curse
And worse, we barely qualify as specks of dirt
Yet our ego is larger than an XXL shirt
Why must we continue to believe we're important
Our love for ourselves is truly inordinate
Ramparts we have not seen before dazzle us like neon lights
Being right is seemingly trite when the sea engulfs us all like night
Constant journey leads to more questions, less answers
Slowly realizing existence is nothing but a damn curse
And worse, we barely qualify as specks of dirt
Yet our ego is larger than an XXL shirt
Why must we continue to believe we're important
Our love for ourselves is truly inordinate

I really think this needs some work... XXL shirt, really? That's all you could rhyme with dirt? |
