Life, in a mannerism, they proclaim Is fragile, untouchable, limitless, rather a chain Life, the folks sing, as delightful and indescribable as it is, is only here to stay I do not know where, I do not know why But thoughts mingling within my nerves apply A paradox of significance within the definition Of the purposeful journey we call life Albeit the good, we choose to focus rather unwisely Precisely of course, over delusional mastery Understanding only comes in hand when necessary When it threatens our existence, calling Bravery You see, humans as smart as we are perceived to be Might as well be a laughing stock to the rest of the scene What we value, we fail to pursue, what we preach, we fail to reach Would it hurt to let go of Prejudice? An individual who has been imagined by generations beforehand, woven by bits of uncertainty and; well, where is he? Hold on, here comes another Violence and Destruction stand on the porch Should we let them in? Should we not? They are there, ready, ready anytime temptation hits now Humanity degrades what she has created Humiliates what she has achieved, and criticizes her dignity Worth has lost its value, hence wonder What have we done to help save her? Sense has lost all contact With wicked games being played, selfish pact Response no longer yearns for Suffering Such that, we deceive our own sect Where is Understanding when we need her? A few doors down the street, go ahead and wake her She has not heard from us for a while now Last time we spoke, I reckon, was when our own path was in danger

Understanding
Life, in a mannerism, they proclaim Is fragile, untouchable, limitless, rather a chain Life, the folks sing, as delightful and indescribable as it is, is only here to stay I do not know where, I do not know why But thoughts mingling within my nerves apply A paradox of significance within the definition Of the purposeful journey we call life Albeit the good, we choose to focus rather unwisely Precisely of course, over delusional mastery Understanding only comes in hand when necessary When it threatens our existence, calling Bravery You see, humans as smart as we are perceived to be Might as well be a laughing stock to the rest of the scene What we value, we fail to pursue, what we preach, we fail to reach Would it hurt to let go of Prejudice? An individual who has been imagined by generations beforehand, woven by bits of uncertainty and; well, where is he? Hold on, here comes another Violence and Destruction stand on the porch Should we let them in? Should we not? They are there, ready, ready anytime temptation hits now Humanity degrades what she has created Humiliates what she has achieved, and criticizes her dignity Worth has lost its value, hence wonder What have we done to help save her? Sense has lost all contact With wicked games being played, selfish pact Response no longer yearns for Suffering Such that, we deceive our own sect Where is Understanding when we need her?
