Why Does It Seem This Way

Life's perceived inanity propels us ever forward Never content in our volcanity we strive toward the summit of enlightenment Failing to grasp the consequences of the mentality that drives us Our quest to better humanity can lead us down a dark path One that turns morality upside down We trade truth for lies, good for evil, right for wrong; a sad reality Urbanity wanes; I weep softly for it's inevitable demise The brutality of it all A sad realization that our grand mundanity is nothing but a ruse Overwrought with profanity society clamours on The insanity of it all Yet knowing full well the fatality that awaits us We abandon formality and embrace vitality believing that absolutely nothing is wrong
