Blind Humanity

Just to let you all know that i wrote this a long time ago as a poem-song. Thanks for reading.





















Walking down the street 



I saw a blind man staring at the wall



no one to guide him



no one to ease his fall.



They left him lying there



walked by without regret



they left him crying there



in pain i can't forget.






This world we live in



work so hard they fail to see



the pain the fears of other's



won't help without a fee



we live, we strive for money



wont stop unless it's funny



so carry on your day



work to death but make it pay.






We go on living 



like zombies in a world of pain



when we collide



we argue over who's to blame



the little man gets trodden on



his face is bleedingwhats gone wrong



society just passes by



unknown to them his time to die






Thisworld we live in



work so hard they fail to see



the pain the fears of others



wont help without a fee



we live, we strive for money



wont stop unless its funny



so carry on your day



work to death butmake itpay.






They look around



and only$ee the money signs



they turn youdown



when your credit cards declined



and whenyou ask for help



they shrug you off



you turn you knelt



your hands together



you pleadwith them



they kick you down.






This world we live in



work so hard they fail to see



the pain the fears of others



wont help without afee



we live, we strive for money



wont stop unless its funny



so carry on your day



work todeath but make it pay.






Humanity has failed its task



with selfish thought and greedyminds



and with the things we've done



become the way we are defined



one day the proud willfall



and with themthe world will too



weapons of mass destruction



erupt into a fireball.



































More to come.......
