Identity: Redefined for Society’s Demise

By lost the lonely dead

The rape of ordinary people Strip the citizens of nationalism Free the shackles of religion Open wide the flood gate of new age insanity Do anything and everything Just to do it without really a reason for it No one knows how we got here Everyone believes were going somewhere My compass spins nervously Anxiety as the seconds tick by How much longer? And whatever happened, to me? Media Mass preaches faithfully But nothing else seems stationary Culture tells us to behave for ourselves We’re doing our best to stay distracted And we’re winning this race Drowning in beautiful lies I think we’ve forgotten He doesn’t move There aren’t any missionaries to the soulless Lets sacrifice all the old weak and poor Rid the world of filth-like reality Whatever happened to liberty? Dreams I had of Identity They were washed away... With the blood of innocents I reject sameness I turn the gun sights my way They tell me to hide, but I cant Cant even move Im trying to hear a faraway voice

This is very factual to me..but I guess people hate to admit the reality of our world now..kind of philosophical too..I enjoy reading this..
