Philosophy

They say whatever doesn't kill you
 makes you stronger
just how strong do you have to be
I look around in disappointment
I don't like the world I see
So many people have forgotton
just what life's supposed to mean
Sitting there frozen, restless
waiting for the end to set them free
Or are we just paralyzed
by all that we have seen
Lost in our own confusion
somewhere inbetween
