I don’t understand why people fight
Over the most ridiculous things
I don’t understand why people judge
By just looking on the outside
I don’t understand why the world is violent
When words work better than actions

Mostly,
I don’t understand why the world is split up
When we should be working together, to save humanity
And how just a few evil people
Can make the whole world an evil place
I don’t understand
