Anarchy


The body of one founded on war, greed, currency

The body of one destroyed by systems yet to be followed by its creators

The body of one determined to boost ones-self but at the cost of death and despair

Send the troops! Send the troops! Send the troops!

But why?

Have we lost love, passion, respect for the others

Have we strive for unity but fall for division

Have we not given our green to you

Only to be given to the mechanics of war

Send the kids! Send the kids! Send the kids!

But why?

Only to be flushed from the innocence

Only to be thrown into the pits of influence

Only to question authority but given silence because of age

Send the ...

We've lost our society our drive for happines

Only because of the greater powers of government

Only because the ones who take show no mercy for the ones who deserve

Have we fallen for structure of the society

Or have we fallen for Anarchy
