To the unknown
I have grown
To perceive light
Through this endless fight
Again, I drown
Hoping to be found
By the warmth of the Sun
And the guidance of the Moon
I myself should try
To let go and cry
To recollect what is sane
To swim above my pain
There's a constant worry
Of never being happy
But what is joy?
And do we have a choice?
Or does our broken souls
Need complex tools
To fix what is "defective"
Like a corrupted detective
Soon, I realize
All of this wasted time
Trying to fix a broken mind
Instead of fixing a society of crime
To be insane now
To be put in a gown now
Perhaps we aren't the issue
But symptoms of those causing this truth
Perhaps we are sane
Stuck in a vicious game
Where the Earth is crumbling
And humans are starving
Is our valid fear
A mere reflection in the mirror
Of the unfairness
of our individualism's loneliness
And of this capitalistic
World of tragedy?
