Nightmare

Lost in time Hard to make a dime Wondering where yesterday went. Emotions spent No longer know the world I am in Is life a sin Man on the podium saying I am the way Listen to what I say Vote for me for a better day Nations at war Can feel hatred soar Everyone wanting a little more Homeless reaching an all time high Where is the sky Choosing drugs over a home When in Rome Times are rough We the people are tough But some can never get enough Pressure building Hearts never yelding Trying to see The world as it really be Truth Lost youth Beyond each lie Who are you, who am I Lost to the tick and the tock Downwards winds the clock I wish to fly So hard to try Seeing other nations On the news stations Fighting to be free Can that really be World so over populated Simply stated Go to war Kill some more Let the body count soar Little kids machine guns in hand Following the leader of a despicable band A world falling apart Tugs at your heart Can tomorrow really be With all I see The big bang happens at the end Transend Not at the start Hate blows the world apart Slower beats the human heart I see life start to stall Can we pass this wall Rage Lifes new stage Will our history have a final page The burning sky The warbirds fly Death falls from above Life's final shove Mankind loses the way Mechanical man begins his stay Life goes on the same But not for us We made life such a fuss Technology has reached so far We are no longer the main star
