Where Did My World Go Anyway

Very silently step by step In the dark it slowly crept Until one day, to my surprise The world I knew, I could not recognize Little bits first then big ole pieces Before you are aware, the world you know ceases Never did I gave it a single thought A glimpse of the end was all I caught I took it for granted; am I to blame Thought it would always stay the same Eventually I decided to join in With feet first, I jumped in the din Kill the cops; behead the innocent Persecute the holy, pay up for the indolent None of these things sounded right to me I found, I tried, I could not be What can be done; I do not know But where it is heading, I cannot go
