Why do you watch me?

Why are you watching me?

You’re wasting  life’s precious moments.

Your time is limited here.

Shouldn’t you be outside?

Instead of sitting here, with a cheap beer?

Your missing out of life,

You will never know what life is like, if you stay here and watch.

Why are you watching me?

Why do you waste your time?

Have you ever lived before?

The adventures you see you can have yourself!

The memories you want, can be made!

You don’t need to be like these fakes!

Hurry up  and learn to live!

Your life is at stake!

You claim you love your life,

Then you stay inside and watch.

You complain and complain

You say you’re in so much pain.

Why do I make you depressed?

I  just show you what you want me to see

Don’t like what you see?

You could always change the channel you know.

I’m just trying to entertain you.

I do not like to put you in pain.

Changing the channel will not change how you feel.

Stop watching  romantic comedies,

And actually tell her how you feel.

You watch me,

And complain to me,

Cry and vent with me too.

Just go outside and live without me.

I do not mean to hurt you,

I’m just trying to be me.

Get outside,

Turn off the TV

Don’t blame me.

I’m just trying to show you what you want to see.

Hurry up and go outside

Life is truly a rollercoaster ride.

Get out!

Get out!

Get out of here!

Your life is at stake!

Hurry! Hurry!

The clock is 

Tick

                   Tick,

Ticking.

The sad this is I know people like this. I am the type of person that likes to be active and see and explore new things so of course I have had a hard time understanding people that just want to sit around and all day and not explore new things. I really liked this one
