Parents continually break promises to their kid,
repeating the same cycle their families did.
Awakened by their own screams of fright
are children who will always feel alone at night.
A lonely boy raises himself in silence
and grows to commit crimes of violence.
Another student ignored in and outside of school
begins to act out by breaking every rule.
A decreasing number of pupils pass
because teachers no longer educate the class.
A lover being used tears her skin apart
in a futile attempt to heal her heart.
Blind followers led astray,
struggling to remember a better day.
Unable to reach an agreement, wars will be waged;
More destruction has occurred as the Earth has aged.
Each generation will meet at this tryst,
Until we all cease to exist.
Meanwhile, it is reported with dismay,
that the state of the world is in decay. |
