Description Yeah…yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah…I know what you’re thinking
Lyrics mean nothing when you’re only listening to the music
But I think it goes deeper than that
The words that you don’t listen to come spouting out
Their isn’t a mirror that shows their repulsiveness
Yet you say them without second thought
Cursing used to be sacred
Now they call it “human nature”
When your slippery tongue takes the ground out from under me
You look a lot bigger from down here
But I do it as well
And these clever words don’t make up for mistakes
I just hope for a cure and don’t worry about trying to stop
I can’t beat them, but I won’t join them
That was the worst advice I’d ever heard
But what to expect
I’ll try to stop
But with help from the one who is useful

"Their isn’t a mirror that..." -- you spelled "there" wrong, mate.

Otherwise, I like the idea of this piece. while i agree with the intent of what you're saying, there are some things i'm not sure about -- you say that cursing used to be sacred, but now its second nature? perhaps it was just less mainstream then, but i wouldn't esteem it as something that's "sacred" persay...

the phrase "I can’t beat them, but I won’t join them" is very common; i'm not sure the cliche was necessary.

other than all of that, i really genuinely did like this. the idea is very good.

Youch! It kindof stings to hear your shortcommings, especially when you have no room to dissagree because it's the truth. But thank you for pointing those things out! I'm so fickel on this subject that I neerly regret writing a poem on it...You are very right about it not being as mainstreem...sheehs...ahh well. Thanks for your criticism! It helps!

lol, i hope i didn't sound too blunt. sometimes i can be very critical... but only when i actually care about something. and your poems, i think, are excellent (much better than a lot of the poetry on DA... hehehe) so they're worth the effort. criticism helps... yes indeed. have a good one
