Issues of mankind
Look at the flowers wilting
 The sun going away
 The day has just begun 
 And yet it ended suddenly 
 As if to skip today
 Could be that the world as finaly tired
 Leaving us all alone
 Alone in our hatred
 Alone in our madness
 Alone in our utter depression
 That seems to plague us all 
 
 The beating that girl took
 To the words that stayed
 Floating above yet to be grasped 
 So mundane
 
 Watching them, so close together
 Their love so unbearble
 Because they turned to one another
 And found what many could not
 Love in the same gender
 Love that many wish to rot
 
 Whispered lies to the boy sitting below
 Crying out for help
 When he felt so alone
 In lunacy he lingered
 And with tears he tried
 He put the gun away
 From it all he cried
 
 The violence at home
 It was tearing her apart
 Her mother was a wreck
 Her father was a drunk
 Abusing her and left cold
 So hungry she was
 But nothing could be done
 
 Through all these troubles
 We sit here and linger
 Listening to them all
 From the press of our finger
 It plays around us
 In more than one way
 But the only one we care about
 Is what's on TV today
