Darvon Cocktail

A Poem by Hunter Zabbai

so stressed and f*****g depressed
nothing's left. what's next?
look to the news, or look to the sky
or look to anything that gets you by
politics and religion and fortune and fame
all of these things can drive a man insane
so calm yourself, because I can't stay
in a world where I cannot play
don't worry about it, and don't cry
it's my fault that I'm going to die
I've set myself up, while you stood aside
in your own life, thinking you're alive
and all of this is real, and pain is what you feel
but sedated and medicated makes the pain unreal
but the wheels will keep on turning
and my future is still burning
bright, or down, right to the ground
to start it all over again and make my momma proud
i won't go out this way again
just keep to myself and be a simple man
when the wind blows me on a new path i pave
the fountain of youth is where we all shall shall bathe
don't be late, or yourself you'll hate
and that's true for all of us, escape
from the relations that all of us share
only a color or standpoint make us feared
like a god, with angels and devils
collectible cups and stomach unsettles
to be a big star, you wanna go far
but don't burn out before
people figure out who you are
before you figure out who you are

if we all stayed true
then there'd be nothing left to do
but alas, we all make mistakes
it's our human nature, and we just replace
the ones before, and the ones to come
never knowing where we truly come from
or where we end up, but why does that matter?
quit spending your life trying to flatter
your answers to your thoughts unquestioned
maybe then we'll learn a lesson
until then, it'll begin again
a perfect life covered with sin
we're losing more, just like before
one last night then I'm out the door
it was my final time, i know it's right
time to take control of my own life
