“Unearthing Secrets: What Lies Beneath the Sands of Time?”
I was just another one who didn’t act
apart for show
to get brownie points racked
up on my school report to sleep well on my pillow.
When history books gathered dust on my shelves
and history channel commentators spouted their wise words to themselves
I was just another one
who didn’t stop them doing what I already knew was wrong.
And when I became just another one who got myself battered
I, at least, got myself saved and conscience cleared by being a victim.
Just another one who didn’t think it mattered
until I was dragged away from my bed to detention for being too dim.
