Society


Society 

We make society,

Yet we blame it

When something goes wrong. 

We are society,

Yet we say that it "killed the teenager".

Society makes us hate ourselves. 

We make us hate ourselves.

So let's change it.

Too many people take their own lives.

Too many people make others

Take their own life. 

So let's be a little kinder,

Be more patient.

Be kind and you could save a life.

Society needs to change.

Lets stop talking about it,

And do something about it.
