    Men say things
    Women do things
    Think with libido
    Answer with I do
    Finalize with divorce

    Fall in love with a stripper
    Expect the model of decorum
    Fall in love with blue collar
    Expect the land of luxury
    Setting ourselves up for failure

    Here we are
    Playing with morality
    Pretending to care
    Holding our own emptiness
    Becoming our own undoing

    Take a look
    More then a glance
    Stare in the face of happiness
    Admiration and envy
    All for your time

    Very focused and expansive, evokes multiple mind loops. :)

    So if you say what you do and do what you say,
    does that make one balanced?
