Running Wild

A belief to guide us along the straight and narrow, yet abuse has distorted the perception of millions who were exposed to the dark side of what was holy.

Love me as I am

Heard in every heart

Abused and confused

They say

I was lost so I chose

To walk in the dark

And found beauty

In the grotesque

Forgive me

For what I've done

May be, yes

But the answer is no

Life will go on

Until you learn

Not to play with a gun

Not to harm a child

Not  to do the evil you do

Pay attention

I see All 

Running wild

This we believe to be true

But not all is black and white

There are many points of view

In between darkness and light

We can learn wrong from right

But the delusion of power

Gives one the feeling

Being destructive is might

I hear a sigh, then laughter

It's all right

Wait until after life
