through the eyes of the world
written by SilentScreamsofDeath12:25 AM 9/13/04Children cry
as hope has died
all throughout the world
tears have choken
heart's being broken
souls are tossed and hurled
into the night
of faded light
the future you cannot see
the past forgotten
the present gone rotten
wishing not to be
children shooting
people looting
the world is a disgrace
we were born to live
but what can we give
when we can't show our true face?
love's just a word
that goes unheard
as many have lost their souls
hate is a game
to the demon's name
so we lose sight of our goals
what do we do
when nothing seems true
and we no longer believe
nothing to offer
and all will suffer
yet noone cares to grieve
bullets fired
children hired
to sell out in the street
it's someone to trust
jaded by the lust
of all those that they meet
My soul's gone to pot
As all will rot
I just wish I could leave
We'll be "saved" they swear
but noone cares
What a tangled web we weave. |
