so there are they and me sitting on the other side of the rainbow in reversed chairs it's a place where no one dares to look because they're afraid of seeing something that could shatter their perspective that's why their point of view remains stagnant untouched for decades they've buried themselves in the shadows of their shallow existence relentlessly pursuing the goals of the next generation while neglecting their own it's as if they gave up on their own lives the moment they created their younger reflection in the mirror and that's something I'll never understand
