What Have We Become?

We are cold
We are hurt
We tear out
The hearts
Of others
With no remorse
We are sick
We are twisted
We thrive on
Violence
And anger
And death
We are lost
We are scared
We are impatiently
Waiting
For something
To come and...
Save us...

We try
We take
We'll keep going
On and on and on and on and
On and on and on and on
Until we get what we want
We lie
We steal
We'll do
Everything
And anything
For the adrenaline...
Rush...

We are anxious
We are suspicious
We are paranoid
To the point
Where we suspect
Our own shadows
We are flawed
We doubt ourselves
We are our own
Worst enemies
The only ones
Holding us...
Back...

We are blind
We are deaf
We'll choose what
We want to see
And close our ears
To the truth
We are blunt
We are pride
We'll draw the line
In YOUR dirt
And dare you to cross
