Life's Infection

They are all the same
They don't know what to do
They fight their lives
Just as well as you
Break away
From common society
Don't follow their codes
Swim through variety
Tear down the walls
Cross the lines
Mess up their worlds
Leave them blind
Locked in this paradox
They can't get out
They soon will perish
No need to shout
Look around
At what you have made
Loss of so many lives
What a great trade
The world is no different
Than it was before
You didn't solve anything
You're just asking for more
Why do people try to fix
What can't be undone?
We will all be caged
There's no where to run
Fight no more
Lay it all down
Troubles can't be lost
No faith to be found...

    One of the best I've seen so far I think, the way you see society is almost identical to how I view it and this is a brilliant illustration of it.
