All is unexceptional

Change is irrelevant
Same dew at dawn as is at dusk
No matter what, everything is the same
Claim progression with no evidence
The only place to go is down
Keep your eyes high for mediocrity
Smile for nothing more than slight adequacy
Lend a hand of indifference
Tell an ordinary joke
Say you'll improve without advance
Every moment means nothing
Every caring shrug, careless
All promises crushed
No reason for assurance
Lies are truth and truth is right
Friends are acquaintances
Handshakes and kisses are coequal
Talking means nothing
Words are empty
There is no reason for affirmation when it's dead.
No one is worth any time

Not even yourself
Same dew
Same mold
Claim and claim, but be a liar
Cry wolf and be eaten
