Burning Flesh
August 4, 2012
Evil men shouting
A world filled with sin
People uncaring of the human life
Looking at my people as a pack of animals
Instead as individuals
That's why they can kill my kind
I hear screaming children
To end it all is the only thing I can do
To burn is the only way
To show them the error in there ways
To show them what war does to people
This is my last resort
To set a fire to myself
And I'm confidant that this will end the suffering
You might think me to be a hero
But I just have a tolerance of zero
