Covered In Stains
Your morality is covered in stains.
Your ethics have lost their grain.
And your addiction is in pain.
Power and control will not sustain.
Your intelligence lies on the floor.
Your compassion has become a chore.
And your fairness is abiding by its own law.
Your personality is benign.
Your charisma has no notable shine.
Your company always feels like a bind.
And your connection is just wasting my time.
Your morality is covered in stains.
Your ethics are poorly framed.
Your intelligence is a losing game.
