I gave you my all
And you just left me blue
Like a man dressed in black
Crying in a church pew
All your pushing
All your beauty
All the good, the bad
And even the ugly
They make me better
Just to tear me down
But i keep coming back
And wear my pain as a crown
Its all a matter of time
Till we make it last
And make this torment
A thing of the past

So much chatter
Without much listening
And it just goes on and on

It doesn't matter
That meaning's missing
We want to chat till the break of dawn

To make it better
We might try singing
In hopes that everyone will sing along

Chatter gets greater
The noise keeps winning
We might as well just chat along

How long is one second?
One hour? One minute?
How long is a moment
of forever, infinite?
How do we know
All animals aren't sentient?
When we as humans
**** each other with no sentiment
Exalt ourselves
Cause we're the top of the food chain
Say we're good
But treat every other animal with disdain
Brother against brother
Just a rerun of Able and Cain
Obsessed with the past
But make the same mistakes again and again
Destroyers of the planet
God's most dangerous creation
Causing our own demise
Whether black, white or Asian
Time to change our ways
Stop the planet's deterioration
Be the solution to our own problem
The earth's medication

— The End —
