Will the madness end
people all around you
just act and pretend
they see right through you
what does it cost
to reach out a hand
show some compassion
before we're lost
You are building the flames
you just add to the hatred
it's what they want
they don't want to see the truth
they don't care who they blame
and nothing is sacred
they're never at fault
and will never feel shame
you can't change them
When terror strikes
why do you feed them
by hunting likes
sharing this sadness
we're better than this
is this what we've learned
from our parents
and our siblings?
You can't change them
try to change them
You are building the flames
you just add to the hatred
it's what they want
they don't want to see the truth
they don't care who they blame
and nothing is sacred
they're never at fault
and will never feel shame
Is this what we want
to teach our children
what will they learn
from our sad depredation
it's time we stop
and reconsider
what we'll leave
to our next generation
try to change them
