My World

My world. Your world
Two planets floating,
Floating upon ideals
Two worlds lost among deception
Truth lost amongst the lies
Hell is our curse,
Hell is where we live.

We live a lie
Democracy is a scam
A scam from your world
Your merciless Gods Chanel, Coach, GE, Halliburton,
Spread the disease that infect the hearts of the good
Demons live in democracy,
Capitalism cheers for poverty
Freedom, justice, equality
Controlled by inflated men,
Inflated egos, and inflated wallets.

Your world is dying,
My world is crying
'Peace, peace to the masses'
Your world is scheming
Preparing to invade
Invade our minds
Take our freedom
Starve our peace
Rape our love
Tear out our bleeding hearts

But when the last of my kind falls
And the last tree dies,
The last bird falls from the sky,
And the last drop of the sea dries
You will cry, for all is lost
All your meaningless paper will crumble
Your deception will crack
Your followers will disperse.

My world will live again.

Very sad. Not what you say, but you yourself. You seem to be tormented by this world.
