I hate this world.
We’ve destroyed.
With its war and pollution.
With its hate and evil.
With its fear and pain.
With its poverty and its lies.
The list goes on and on.
What have we done?
Taking for granted.
Throwing away.
A planet we call home.
Do what you want.
But it’s not what I call human.
Selfish and absurd.
Coldhearted.
No.
I don’t hate this world.
I hate what we’ve done.
Destroying and denying.
Our mistakes.
The selfishness of it all.

People want to know why I do this, why I write such gross stuff. I like to tell them I have the heart of a small boy... and I keep it in a jar on my desk.

Now that we're here,
It's so far away
All the struggle we thought was in vain
All the mistakes,
One life contained
They all finally start to go away
Now that we're here its so far away
And I feel like I can face the day
I can forgive and I’m not ashamed to be the person that I am today
