Looking upon the city
As it takes the pouring rain It fills my heart with sadness
As I see them all in pain
Street beggars ask for money
But get nothing, not even bread
Their lives are void and worthless
All their hopes and dreams are dead
Then the thieves that pick pockets
Steal wallets to feed themselves
They have no conscience anymore
As deeper and deeper they delve
And the poor shopkeeper
Quite frail and walks by cane
Robbed daily and ridiculed
Often times called insane
The prostitutes on street corners
Work to feed their little one
They hate their job and hate their life
And just wish they could be done
Then there are the royal pigs and Greedy fools
Who stuff their cheeks just like a mouse
They have slaves and servants and AC units
And a big shining castle that they call their house
This abominable world is horrifying and wrong
Filled with greed and brimming with hate
Good things happen to bad people daily
And the only one to take the blame is a little thing called fate
Morbid is no longer a realistic word
Our world is saturated with unspeakable evil
But just as eyes grow accustomed to the dark
Also have the hearts of all of the people
In the media and in the streets
In the homes and in the mind
Sin has grown out of control
And to it we are blind
As the darkness continues to crawl
Across the land and across the sea
Happiness and chivalry have died away
Not a single good person will there ever be
It rips things away
It will leave a harsh mark
It pulls and drags people
Down into the dark
It tears families and friendships
Into several different parts
The darkness and hatred
Will latch onto their hearts
And after all's said and done
And the world has burned itself to the ground
And all the good people've died
And been piled into a big mound
Then the eyes will be opened
And see all that is wrong
The Earth will cry out
And sing a sad song
And the martyrs that died
For the sake of the world
Will be raised up in honor
As a white flag is unfurled
And all will know peace
And the white flag will ascend For just a brief moment Before it all starts again
