In The Pit of Darkness
You think this is a heart of light, you smile while the blood of the innocent paint the ground, were the bodies lay
It is a heart of darkness, a heart of hatred, it beats in the shell of human greed and ignorance
The sun always shines, and there is always a new dawn, but those that are dead wonβt ever see one again
It is never easy to take the truth, to take the stark reality of darkness, but joy is not a simple remedy to it
For it is a wound that will fester, and that will hurt, but it must be so to keep the mind aware
For things are not alright, this machine is bleeding to death, and we are trapped inside of it
This heart of hatred is a immortal beast, it always has been around since humans made God
We will never see change, for we deny that there is a problem
We will never see justice, for we believe it is truly blind
Progress is a philosophy that shines in the hands of the passionate, but is strangled by the hands of the ignorant
We will see more sorrow, more death, more tears
And yet we will do nothing, for we are devoid of sympathy and human decency
We have become what Christ didnβt die for, we are merely beasts of hedonism and pain
