A Day For Hypocrisy
One day a year, we decide to be kind
To show our love for one another, to be pure of mind.
We laugh and smile, a day to rejoice;
Though is one day a year the only choice?
Why not be kind all year long,
Show your love and bliss to those you're among?
Can't we retain the better half of our humanity within our hearts?
If humanity consists only of this hypocrisy, I want no parts!
One day to show your love, one day to be pure;
Tis the truth, there is no cure.
We're destined to live in shambles,
Never experience any true gambols.
It's sad to say, we're nothing but lies;
So I have one thing left to say: my final goodbyes.
Learn from humanity's mistakes;
Do not let your heart be filled with petty aches.
Love your life, so when you die
You may leave in peace, with a blissful goodbye.
