starved
Starved for attention
okay I’ll buy it
Here’s a cup of sarcasm
To wash down your ego
And a piece of humble pie
To take when you go
Don’t fill up on bologna
Fed to you from books
Here’s a plate of life
Starring your family as the cooks
Although it may seem to be
None of these come with out a fee
So when do you plan to pay?
Tomorrow?
Today?
Will you bargain with your life
This great cost
for validation on ice
You leave with a canteen of respect
hanging at your side
And a piece of pity
You tried to hide
But when it all comes down
Rest a shore
You will staved once more
