How come we always
follow certain rules
Like a classic recipe
that no one denies

2 tablespoons butter
to melt the sad
4 cups of milk
to strengthen your bones

Remember 2 eggs
that poison your dough
Now it cannot come raw
it must be prepped

How come I must change
before I talk it out
Isn't the point
to strip my issues naked

How come we always
follow stupid rules
That make my issues worse
instead of better
