Human

JoshLohr

We want to climb higher and higher,

But its already going down-hill,

Blowing it out, but can’t stop the fire,

Scream for help, but are helplessly still,

Everything getting bigger and bigger,

But no one is standing tall,

It’s over, he pulled the trigger,

Triggered men shot them all,

We cling for peace, but celebrate war,

Brotherhood n’ liberty, are history,

Soldiers fight, don’t know what for,

I guess this will be kept a mystery

  True, but I think it gives my point a poetic touch : )

Life's quagmire of reason shows through your words here. Pulled this way and that we must find our own path if we are free thinking. Maybe one of us will bring real change.
