What Kind of World
What kind of world
Are we living in
When a young man
Has a heart so full of
Hate and destruction
That he commits mass murder
By the age of twenty-three?
Has our world gone so sour that
There's nothing left but hate, greed,
Prejudice and suicide?
Is this what we're leaving our children
Doesn't anyone care anymore?
Maybe it's time to start looking at what's
On the outside, and start listening to what
People are trying to tell us.
There's far too many cries for help not being heard.
