The beauty of this world we cannot see,
Cos we are blinded by the bright lights from the neon fake,
And trying to find that peace that was once already there,
Was human\u2019s biggest mistake,
We put ourselves in this daily nightmare,
When we were meant to live a dream,
We don\u2019t challenge why or even question it anymore,
And nothing nowadays is what it seems,
We do our daily dance to the beat of chaos,
The confusion that is life, confuses us all,
As we lose touch with Nature, Reality and even our own minds,
We just plod along and accept it all,
We do not ask why,
And the slightest of questions we may ask, will be classed as absurd,
We are all underfed sheep,
Drifting from field to field in our lost and lonely herd,
And as we stand on our stage,
Completely deranged and filled with nothing but rage,
We, who were once born free,
Lock ourselves in that cage,
And as we walk these broken streets
We lose our peace with each and every breath,
And now the only pure thing we have left in life,
Is death,
And even that we refuse to accept,
And we confuse it with a made up power that is higher,
The so called super intelligence of man,
Makes the whole daily dredge of an existence nothing but dyer,
Cos being compos mentis in a homo sapien,
Is now no longer a thing,
And being a free spirit filled with peace and love,
Is now considered strange and a sin,
So the flickering street lights,
That reflects on the fallen rain,
Making it so much clearer,
That we will never escape our inner pain,
Our voice we silenced,
Our souls we sold,
We beat ourselves into the ground,
Losing grip as we tried to keep hold,
There was no war between life and man,
It was us who created the struggles and the fight,
And we are now left there to rot in memories of time,
Like a lost and lonely flickering street light.
