You only have yourself
A one way mirror
My soul reflecting only what it sees
Evil, cruelty, despair, fear
The reality of, humanity
I will never comprehend
Why man hates one another
Why we hurt when we should help
Why we kill when we should save
Why we don’t see we are all the same
Even within one’s own family,
Divisions run
It is clear to me, that humans,
Are meant to be
Solitary beasts
My soul reflecting only what it sees

Why we hurt when we should help
Why we kill when we should save
Why we don’t see we are all the same
Even within one’s own family,
Divisions run
It is clear to me, that humans,
Are meant to be
Solitary beasts
