World of Darkness
The world dies in darkness
The wolves of hate feed on despair
Cathedrals of horror
Promote hatred
The walls we put up around our minds
Blind us from reality
Those we hate
Are living normal lives
Just like us
And we all want to be loved
And yet
It is hard to give love
Pain has hardened our hearts
Capitalism has broken
Our spirits
It doesn't get better
How many think
Two days is bliss
After working five days a week
And we wish for those two days
Not knowing
We're wishing our lives away
And yet
We can be replaced
At the drop of a dime
So darkness breeds in every heart
What is the value
Of living life
When we're damned
To die in darkness
