I just realized I didn't need to fill in mood and music I'm listening to...since I am not the sheep that most of these "journalers" are.
A highway built for you and me
Masked with fog so you can’t see
Off-ramp labels you should avoid
Detriment to a society destroyed
Criminals, protesters and tree-hugging hippies
No difference seen by the powers that be.
Where the path leads, nobody knows
Sacrificial sheep at the end of the road
They’re fucking with your fears
And they don’t care
About the countless tears
And the cross they bear
You wear it for them
As they find a way to spoil
Everything from the sky
To the precious soil
Speed limit rising as our freedoms fall
They won’t stop until they have it all
File your forms and wait for returns
Year after year we feel that burn
When they want you, they want it now
Americans serve as the systems cash cow
Blindly you followed, but not for the best
Now we need to put them to the test
They’re fucking with your fears
And they don’t care
About the countless tears
And the cross they bear
You wear it for them
As they find a way to spoil
Everything from the sky
To the precious soil
Gonna lose everything
Left wing and right wing
A grip on your soul
Their laws and tolls
Slowly they lied
Deaf to your cry
Now you are silent
You wonder why?
Systematic symptom problem solving
Never mind while our leaders are golfingFucker set your driver down you highly paid clown
Frown when people starve despite enough to go around
Life of dull pain, while you write your letters
Quick intense action will make us live better
So ignore the legislation and focus on your own
Take care of business, stop being a clone
They’re fucking with your fears
And they don’t care
About the countless tears
And the cross they bear
You wear it for them
As they find a way to spoil
Everything from the sky
To the precious soil

Cool poem.
Did you make it up?
It's my new rock song...if only I could find some other musicians to help me turn it into a song. Hell, I'd settle for a folk song.
