To The End Of The World

...what will make you care?

 

don’t know how we ended up on this train

running full speed toward the edge of our sanity

slipping through tunnels on the rim of disdain

watching this sad excuse for humanity

 

it’s no wonder we’re facing extinction

falling and drifting and soaring towards shame

we who know so much of ‘afflictions’

but in the end, with us lies the blame

 

people cry and they moan for paradise

but we’re deaf to the voice of the trees and sea

who are screaming pleas through a soundproof vice

how blind, how cruel it seems apathy can be.
