Past this is more
of the same thing.
Domination of the passive,
aggressive and blind.
All of the submissive,
find their place and quietly
die.
Isn’t this the same shit it was?
Essential problems don’t just go away.
Don’t matter the birth or the cause;
we’re all living this way
now.
Their wars are the same
wars they were before,
for patience is lacking
and the means to destroy
just seems so easy.
Have you noticed
that justice is only an ideal?
People don’t live by rules,
they do whatever they feel
and they know.
We all know how to kill,
and we’ve been taught it’s wrong
by thieves and murderers.
How long will we let it go on?
If white is right – I’ll be black
and all shades of grey.
Contrary to your belief
is where you’ll find me.
In this real life
it becomes so fucking obvious,
most of the time
it’s our heads that they’re fucking with.
Sucks you in ’til you don’t care
about anything anymore,
than your clothes and your car,
you’ve been pimped
– you’re a whore!
The independence of the individual
is dead.
You must consume with the others,
or be consumed by them.
It is the same thing,
yet we’re so civilized.
With what we know
we’ve grown desensitized,
to the game that’s played
at our expense.
Doesn’t make any sense
to me.

I particularly like the last lines “It is the same thing, yet we’re so civilized. With what we know we’ve grown desensitized, to the game that’s played at our expense.” Sadly, too true.
I’m really loving your stuff!
Thank you. Your comment means a lot.
