The Beast Within
We all pride ourseves because we live in the year 2015
A year in which humanity so much progress has seen
Violence and hatred we thought were things of the past
And war and terror, we believed, were not possible to last
Then a moment comes that an appalling act takes place
That makes all of us to look ourseves in the face
We then realize with much horror and a lot of disgust
That the beast Man carries within, may turn the world to dust!
