If we aren't supposed to fear the dark Why are there so many streetlights? If we're supposed to make friends of enemies Why are there always big fights? If children are the minds of the future Why do we treat them like they're dumb? And if we're all supposed to focus on empthy Why do we promote feeling numb?
You say what I think, but I do what you won't. One may try to verbalize this in ways that don't Always make the most sense, or seem like they're from sound mind But doing the right thing is more than just kind.
What morals have you when you speak with both sides of your mouth? One side says good, the other says bad, and you expect me to hear you out? I watch what you do, giving to charity as you spit on kids, I know this simple note won't have you rushing to quit.
Being mean and doing wrong becomes a way of life With every cackle and sneer and grudge, you build up on strife. Almost as if you're inhaling deep from your nicotine fix, Preparing to exhale that cancerous smoke always does the trick.
