Slow Suicide

Next I turned my attention To all the outrageous violence That takes place on this planet The tears of the victims, no one can comfort The iron grip of oppressors, no one to rescue So I applaud the dead who are already dead instead of the living Who are still alive But luckier than the dead or the living Is the person who has never been Who has never seen the bad business that takes place on this earth
