Battle

Can't look back
Constantly moving
forward only way to go.

Turned around in
a backwords world.
We are all lost in our
darkness. 

We need a new life
a new start.
Something true something
real. 

Media and lies
Eating the truth
Swallowing it whole

This needs to stop 
we deserve more
but what are we looking for?

A fight? A battle?
This search for new life
never can be taken back
never can be reversed.

Must keep trying 
don't let life
slip away!
