A World Fallen Out of Place
One attack can trigger a full on war,
One voice can stir up a nation,
One decision can screw up everything.
Why does it have to be this way?
Why can’t people have their own ways of life,
And live safely believing them?
Why can’t this world find peace?
We are all here.
We all have goals.
One thing that we have in common is the will to survive,
Today the world fell out of place.
We turned on each other.
We screwed up.
We killed.
Why can’t this stop?
This world lost it’s way.
Murdering,
Unsympathetic.
Today the world fell out of place.
But this time?
I don’t think we can fix it.
