Words I Hope You Hear

We are always feeling guilty. 

If not for hurting others,

Than certainly ourselves. 

They have said that greed is the root of all evil,

But I reckon it is guilt. 

That which festers inside of us,

Passed down from our mothers tears,

And our fathers fits of anger. 

Guilt is our shadow,

In a world where the sun refuses to set.
