The Pain You Cause

Don’t you see it’s unfair so mean To split a child’s peaceful family so Have anger at what our world has been But never kill; never commit an act so low No excuse for the endless lives lost No justice can ever be too much Because you need to understand the cost The tears and despair that was left by your touch But you still act mighty and high Though people suffer by your act You make this the last goodbye Because of the humanity you lack Don’t you hear the screams and cries? The terror, despair as you topple this tower But you know not the person who dies Do you think that gives you right to this power? You love no one nor do they love you You cause misery with this fear But this is your life, this is what you do You never notice the peace that is near Everything you touch turns to ash Well done you’re on the news again You made more sorrow and now you crash You leave in your wake a horror so insane
