MTV Generation
We are the MTV generation
Shielded from traumas of poverty and misanthropy
We inflicted these upon ourselves
We patch the abysmal emptiness
With countless instant gratification
Fueled by self-entitlement
Fanning self-loathing
Technology opens World's door
We further and farther remove ourselves
Nothing is real
We prefer it that way
We don't want to be reminded
Of what we weren't given
Nor do we want to give of it now
Endless Inbox-flooding spam
Constant assault of our senses
By television, movies, radio, magazines
Blocks of sky, benches, trees, cars
Nothing more than marketing opportunities
We sell what we don't own
To purchase what we can't keep
