They Lied.

They lied,
it's not fun to be alive.
It's not okay to cry,
this world is happy deprived.
 
Ice cream used to be enough,
music was the happy pill.
Now, sleeping pills are better,
and cutting is chill.
 
Insults feed egoistics,
know-it-all is education.
Society killed the will to live,
then blamed it to the constitution.
 
Lies duplicated truth so much,
you can hardly tell the difference.
They've hidden facts to keep it safe,
then let hearsay cause massive violence.
 
Fitting in is humanity,
anti-social meant mental disease.
mocking meant speaking up,
and justice are only served to royalties.
 
Blaming game is viral,
yet everyone claims innocence.
Human race yearns for peace,
while holding trophy of arrogance.
 
Disrespecting is the new trend,
those who talked holy were crucified.
This is not a wonderful world,
yes, darling, they lied.

Jee. I really think my poet self is starting to forget how to write good poems.
