Human War
- Life is a battle,
Won by the one-sided,
Enemies we can’t handle.
One thing is said,
The opposite is done,
With no sign of end.
One day our world will fall,
Our savior won’t answer the call.
Our weapons will destroy us.
Some day we have to face it.
No day could ever replace it.
Yet we praise our demise.
Struggle to survive,
For those cast aside,
Have no will to be alive.
Destroyed by our own kind,
Blame falls on them,
Reality begins to unwind.
Abuse what we had when we start,
Laugh as their lives fall apart.
All we love turns on us
We’ll come face to face
With our dying race
We crave our demise.
This is the human war
We’ve brought on ourselves.
We leave our world sore.
Look at the damage we’ve done.
Look at the human war.
