No Hope For Humanity

I should learn to be more 
tolerant.
Before I really get hurt.
The things I could tell you.
Will only satisfy my thirst.
I'll be reducing to another level.
But that doesn't mean ****.
I'm handed a shovel.
To clean up a bit.

My time is getting near.
I've waited my turn.
My body is boiling.
And yet again, I will slowly 
churn.
This light upon my face,
Is indicative of no hope.
Just you watch and see,
Me barrel down the slippery 
slope.

I finally found an end,
 To what I thought was always 
right.
Now I know the answers.
Now I have to try.
Don't bother trying to tame me.
I know what isn't true.
There's no hope for humanity.
The only thing I knew.
A question has an answer.
The answer isn't you.
Take a step backwards.
That's what humans do.
