Description
What are we, but our own personal microcosms;
Fighting our own interior wars.
Born to fight, and kill, and die.
And we're taught how on each plain of life.
The infamous paradox; fighting for peace.
An unwritten hell, upon the world, we unleash.
In the form of a war, but never our own.
Our personal wars remain inside;
They are only fought by us, and are hidden away.
Eating us slowly, killing us more each day.
It's in our nature to destroy ourselves;
Embedded in our minds.
And when we give in to this instinct; we'll leave mercy behind.
Oh what are we, we are mankind.
Said to be the most advanced species alive.
But we kill to conquer, and not to survive.
We love in vain;
And justify with lies.
We induce each other's pain;
We're the reason humanity dies.
We hold the world in our hands, as we watch it slip through our fingers.
Unable to admit that the need for peace still lingers.
And as the grounds give way to the minefields;
We approach our judgment day.
There is no justice anymore, and we are not superior.
We fight wars for the sake of the fight;
Viewing the world with our corrupted visions, never knowing what's truly right.
Our hope slowly dies out; as will man himself.
We are well on our way to our own extinction.
We stare our Vesuvius, straight in the eye.
As we're reduced to ash, our bodies are concreted in their form.
Promise me now that none of us will ever wonder why.
It is of our own doing; and we have all been warned.
