Evil Untold


When we landed
 
We were tested
 
To see if we'd do good
 
Soon to see that wasn't easy
 
The most civilized and stable can change
 
In an instant
 
Even when they said they wouldn't
 
Why does the world alter so much
 
With a single diminutive  circumstance
 
Good is light and bad is dark
 
Somewhere corruption is within us
 
Though we may seem like the most innocent
 
Though we may not know it
 
We hold the evil untold
