Atonement

free in a moment but everyone wants it a single second oh so pleasant now its gone life rages on here's the war join the corps there's the pain that keeps us sane the toll of death taking every last breath the innocence of youth the freest of any moment leaving now just the truth maturity is your atonement

Very well said!!! It shows the true nature of mankind as being evil..... You want proof...... Just put 2 infants together in the same room with one toy and you will see the true nature of man..... Maturity does atone for the sins of youth .... with acceptance of a priceless gift..... Welcome to PSoup......Jake
