Earthly Hell

Has it ever rang a bell,
That life is a pure hell.
The people I thought I trust,
Just told me to bite the dust.

Love is just a stupid game;
All it has brought me is shame.
I seem cooler if I lie;
Because you think your Mr. Wise Guy.

This bullet has your name on in and what not.
All I can do is take that gunshot.
Just so I don’t seem bigger.
I never will pull the trigger.

We live in a race of black and while.
We all die day and night.
Some of us have explored,
While others just were adored.

Our Earth is hell year-round.
No wonder aliens haven’t been found.
They are scared of us; Another excuse.
So why we try; What’s the use?
