Changing the World

by Kristin   Jan 23, 2005


What has this world come too?
It is really quite pathetic.
People are always blue.
Everything is now synthetic.

People hiding their feelings,
acting like machines,
soon they will take over,
They'll be setting all the scenes.

Why must we all fight?
Can we not just get along?
Tears fall as I write,
I wish these words were wrong.

But, they are the truth,
everyone is fighting,
We send the men of youth,
Most people think it's exciting.

How many must risk their lives?
Before we get some sense,
That fighting isn't the answer,
it isn't a great defense.

People have to start thinking,
Exactly what they are worth,
For soon we all will be sinking,
down into the gray earth.

Please think about what I have stated,
Change the world around you,
Lets stop the bad that's been created,
I know we can make it through.
