Right Before Your Eyes

"Right Before Your Eyes"

So much hate,
Breeding endless confusion
Open wounds
Severe contusions.
Denying Reality
Power Transfusions
Mis-information
Reality an illusion

Pure Arrogance
Putting an end to Innocence
Defining one's life
By what you can get

Pure Genius becomes
Pure evil
Self-Destruction=Endless hell

Greed & Hate
Your blood
Their lies
Another Soldier dead
Another mother's cries

Lives become pawns
The rich their kings
Greed their god
Slowly decaying

Turn on the news
And you'll see it live
A species' self destruction
Right before your eyes
