This world is tainted
overfilled, stuffed, crammed
Polluted with judgement and hatred
We were born to be ******

Lies, lies, lies, lies
to which God do you pray?
You hide and you cry
and you cover your eyes
but that won't drive them away

You bleed and you fight
for the "greater good"
but you cry through the night
darling, you misunderstood

Then you take shelter in
a ****** up society that
changes your beautiful self and grins
and gets high off of bloodthirsty combat

It takes you
it breaks you
it laughs at your pain

It shapes you
it makes you
whispers thoughts in your brain

Greed, money, beauty, ***
takes your innocence and turns it to sin
Laughs, then moves on to the next
leaving you alone in new skin

Shivering, you emerge
into a world all the same
No one dares to diverge
They fear isolation and shame

And you disappear
you fade and blend in
But don't let them see tears
for it means you feel within
Which in their eyes,
is the cruelest of sins
