Ruined Lives

There are numerous ruined lives because of your jealous works...
But I guess it was worth it cause you've gained nothing but perks...
Shame of it is you have no clue...
How people cared about you, even those you hurt too...
Though I don't know how to approach the past...
I feel it's something that will help us grow and keep our hearts steadfast...
We all have our ghosts to bury and our burdens to bear...
Take a look around and tell me who's sitting with you over there.
