Dues
June 5, 2003

50 Dollars
Broken Bones
Maybe even 5 years to life
These things we pay, we call our "Dues", for everyone a different price
Some pay little, some pay more; we pay forever- or so it seems
To claim a reality we've wanted since childhood, you remember- your life-long dreams
For me, my dues come in different forms like insecurity, fear or a worthless job
In fact they're the inspiration for these words swimming around in my head like a blob
I watch tv or a picture show wishing it was me
Attempts of suppression never really work when it comes to jealousy or envy
But soon my time will come and I'll be free from all this bull
And then I'll recieve a statement that reads...
"Your Dues are paid in FULL!"
