A World of Brokenness

People listen like megaphones
distracted by their telephones

I'm waiting to participate
thinking how to articulate
the feeling of emptiness 
I see in all this brokenness

The world spins round
and people make all these sounds
but when it comes down to it
all I hear is bull shit

People are empty, broken and lost
they turn to drugs, money, and alcohol
but there's a great cost

Why can't they see you?
Do they not know you're there?
Blind to your clues
as they sit their confused
