They fill up their lives with dogma and rules Most of the time just being quite cruel Trying to make people feel beneath them and bad Personally I find this attitude sad. We should be taught to be kind to each other Not second guess our sister or brother Don't put people down if you don't understand We all have to live in this forsaken land I hope when their lives begin to fade They are happy with the choices they've made I wonder what their Maker will say When they sit in the chair on Judgement Day.
