This city's playing out a parody
A super hi-octane lifestyle tragedy
-There's always some hype over nothing
snappers round some debris try na bake a new celebrity
you 'cline through the day
past the shovers and the snares
thru mad crowd crushes
and the psycho stares
I need some time to just unwind
some chill space to reshape my strategies
- a pad to collapse, lift and relax
somewhere I can rest my anatomy
You breathe life into me
This city's canned like a sitcom
it can do hyper-plus, it can't see what's wrong
even in - an evolutionary sense it all comes across as
pretty muthaf**kin dense
it goes so slow when you need to survive
and so fast when it tries to eat you alive
but still you're gentle with the petals
and tough with the thorns
that you end up made of metal
I need some time to just unwind
some chill space to reshape my strategies
- a pad to collapse, lift and relax
somewhere I can rest my anatomy
You breathe life into me

I agree with crystaldust about the different levels of emotion here. There are a few places I wanted to tweak but they boil down to personal preference, so I'm leaving them alone
You show great potential as a lyrics writer
Welcome to AP and thank you for sharing. La x

If this is an example of your lyric writing I hope you'll write many more. Lyrics are a style of poem I know very little about, but for content it is excellent and also for different levels of emotion. So keep on writing and posting. I like this one a lot. ): Joy
PS I'm definitely not too old to enjoy and understand it.
