I live in this world
But I am not from it

I just can't bring myself
To be like the rest

I flutter round the outskirts
Of what society deems fit

This world is lost in darkness
A scourge is this planet called earth

Humanity is ******
All sinners we are

Blinded by hatred
Seekers of greed

Accumulate and devastate
Painted on the wall

When will the scales fall your eyes
Another day wished by
A day closer till we die.

Robotic daily motions
Grey eyes and no emotions
Programmed behaviour pumped into your mind

This world we live in is a joke
When will we have freedom
It's 1984
As told by Mr. Orwell
