Choosing Sides

Don't lock me out
Please don't assume that I'm not worth
The fuss to give me a chance
There is no model 
But what we have has only ever, 
Ever worked by accident

I want a different 
Idea of what better can be
Which doesn't necessitate 
Having more useless shit

No, listen please
We haven't finished yet
Just been whispering for too long
My generation 
Are opting out of choosing sides
To not miss the omission

I want a different 
Idea of what better can be
Which doesn't involve treating 
Somebody else like shit
I'm so complicit

So much chatter
Making no sense at all
I won't play up to it
I won't play ignorant
No matter how depressing it is to see
Just another
Talking head to ignore
I won't play up to it
I won't play ignorant
I won't give into it, no
I won't give into it
