Trying to Escape Reality

I get on the computer
Go to meaningless sites
Trying to escape reality

I watch television
Change it away from the news
Trying to escape reality

I play video games
Nothing violent
Trying to escape reality

I open my book
A fantasy fiction
Trying to escape reality

I face the world
With eyes closed
Trying to escape reality

I see the pain
I just turn my back
Trying to escape reality

I'm going through the actions
But just really barely existing
All because I'm busy trying to escape reality

I think I'm succeeding
At trying to escape reality
So far...
