Be Fulfilled

Ready? So, go.

Quick Read

You’ve never worked a job you’ve enjoyed

Always wondering who to avoid

Infectious tongue of a lie

Drains you and makes you old

So over used and over used

Starts to get the best of you

So why are you even there at all?

And as I run out of things to say

I’ll make you laugh

Just to stop and say

I volunteer to be your laughing man

The one who should be

What you want him to be

But he won’t because he’s too busy laughing

What you want isn’t far

From what he gives

But there’s something missing

All you can hear is his laughing

But someone who knew him

Could be what you want

+ The laughing man will turn sad

It’s just a shame he can’t hear himself laugh.
