A short poem about being put in your place in the world.

By Definition 

And I might never tell you so you might never know but it's there 

Oh, it's there 

And while you might never know, might not know the words 

You feel it too 

Oh, you feel it, too 

And while we won't ever see it it's there all the time 

In our thoughts in our hearts, it's in our minds 

It colors the world, it paints us a picture of the unspoken sentiment 

We know we're both feeling 

And you can't say you don't know though I say you don't know 

Because you do 

Oh, you do 

Don't try to avoid it, it's already there, it's in so deep now it won't
ever leave 

And it's driving a wedge into our crystalline world 

Of simple decor and driven home morals 

Don't try to escape it, I've told you you won't and I haven't lied yet
so don't 

Stick to the plan, stay in the line, don't try to step out, don't try to
define Yourself
