Is Life Worth Living?
Is life worth living
If I lost interest in life?
I don’t want to die
But I don’t want to live.
I’m afraid of goodbye
But it’s hard to survive
In a world gone rotten
And twisted. I’m scared
And I’m done
With being dared
To be myself
While countless voices
Whisper that my own self
Has only one choice:
Live by our rules
And live by our opinions
For only a fool
Wouldn’t be our minions.
We believe we live in a nation under God
When we really we live like cattle
Being steered with a rod
By our leaders to war; to battle
With precious souls;
With fellow men.
We divide ourselves with flagpoles.
We bicker over seas again and again.
War after war,
It never will end.
This world has become a wh**e
To battle; A wound we can’t mend.
God used to rule this nation
But he gave up years ago
Now contention
Runs this blight show
Puppeting politicians
To hand feed
Us with fake information.
They’ve fried
Our minds to believe
Their lies, that we
Must grieve
Over how he or she
Is living life better.
One has a better money.
One has a better face.
One lives of being funny.
We’ve made life a human race
To be the best
In everything we do.
Life made me become stressed
It’s no good trying to be you.
Is life worth living
If I’ve lost interest in life?
