There's something soothing

About breaking the rules

And making your own guidelines

About doing something wrong

On purpose

And while there might not be any point

To doing it wrong

It feels good

Doing it differently

Being separate from everything

You've ever learned

Being adjacent to what

They all consider success

There's something soothing

About breaking the rules

Meant to govern

The mindless sheep

They know we are

I don't think there's a better way

To feel something other than apathetic

Than to do something wrong

To be angry or sad

Or to make someone upset

And it's a calming sensation

That feels like soft rain on the skin

To know that the end is imminent

But still unknown

Still far away

Or at least we hope that it stays

Far away as we stray

Closer and closer to the realization

We're not as smart

As we once thought we were
