The rich get richer.............so what
Demise

When all feelings left to be had are departed,
And only gazes of fear pour from the eyes.
Oh this is when life is truly started,
Oh this is why you’re my demise.
When living the lie becomes living the truth
And your bitterness trickles out like vermouth
Oh this is when life is truly started,
Oh this is why you’re my demise.
When you eat your salad last instead of first
And only water from the bottle will quench your thirst
Oh this is when life is truly started,
Oh this is why you’re my demise.
When a dam plane is not fast enough
And even Keller could call your bluff
Oh this is when life is truly started,
Oh this is why you’re my demise.
When one girl just will not suffice
And being good is you’re only vice
Oh this is when life is truly started,
Oh this is why you’re my demise.
They can never hold us down, never hold us back,
They know what we are doing but they will never attack.
We all worry about what to worry about when there is nothing to fear
Only a fool swings at the first pitch, only a genius hunts with a spear.
