...for me it's depressing at least, XD.
Well...it's my opinion on the human race as a WHOLE not individual peoples. I have a lot of friends and know people that aren't like this. So..here it is. It's not really "finished" but I'm not sure I want to finish it.

What a tangled web they weave
On and on endlessly
Seamlessly linking to one another
Until without thought
It ends

For none ever think
Of what’s to come
Just what they have
Not what they may lose
It leads to their pain
Their death

So for now, look to past
Look to future
Look to present
Keep what you have
Never let go
For truth lies in youth
And teachings lie in mistakes

Do not be afraid

Many believe they are wise
Through age
Though the young are wise
From mistakes

People assume
And they die
People hesitate
And they fail
People go on
They may fail, but
To live with courage
And not let fear overtake you
Is the path of the true

Truth without lies
Impossible
We must see through the lies to see our truths
Understand the lies to see what’s there
Why do we lie?

Is it fear?
Is it madness?
Is it death looming in the hearts of humans?

We may not know.
Humans can never know everything
For in that lies nothing
In all truths, to know everything, lies death

And as people try to see the hearts
Of those said evil
Is it evil?
Or is it madness, anger, pain
Something all humans feel

Something to break the soul
The spirit
The heart

Something we all feel

And as the humans are pushes
Expected to be
It breaks who we are
Changes them to what’s expected
As all the pain is hidden
Insanity and death is born into the living

And as all hope to have their own happy ending
When they break into the real world
Realizing there is no such thing
They go into death, destruction
Suicide
The fear broken as pain kills

And as the world goes on
As people die
Children, parents, family, friends
Love killed in all degrees
Fire burning, destroying
Senseless deaths, no pity, no release

And war, killing
Power and greed attack the hearts of men
As they devour all life
All care and beauty of the world
Do they care?
No. They care about money
Not the lives they send to death
Not the hell they put all through
Only the power and money

And the swarms
The humans
Running along like nothing is wrong
Waiting and watching
For history to repeat
For that’s life
Just a carbon copy

Though people say they care

And as I look within myself
To see this pain
To understand Why?
There is no answer
But human nature
