Our world

I dont understand
And neither does he
Of how you gain pleasure from others pain
Does it give you a sense of power?
Like your on top of the tower, head of the game
But in truth you know nothing will ever be the same
You've done it before and you say you'll never do it again
Then what do you call the telephone call at 2am
You've been in my place you've seen what it does
You of all people should understand the feelings that come along
That people bring forward
While some shut the door in your face, others open it wider
We ALL call it out in dire need
In need of help in need of love
Were always calling, always wanting
Wanting the feeling of being needed, of being seen, of someone understanding the insane lunatic rants of our world we supposedly take pride in
Pride for what, for the gun raids going on on the other side of the world? For the beautiful forests and seas, polluted with our garbage? Or is it for the stunning jewels on your fiancees hand imported from a country at war.
What will it take for us to realize that we humans have blood shed in our nature, we have a sick spot in our minds that takes pleasure from witnessing another's hurt, another's pain, another's defeat.
People have tried music, have tried rallies they have tried many things to get the message across, but in fact,even the people against it have found a way to fall back on violence as a way to show whats happening to our world.
But how does that help? how does that show that its not necessary to blow someones brains out the other side of their head, because they are not good enough, they dont think the same way as everyone should, they have a dream, a idea of what our world should be like.
So what should it look like? should we go back, to sticks and stones, or should we wait and see what the future throws back at us? And see what happens when theres nothing left.
Our world is a terrible place with dark corners everywhere.
But our world is full of life, of beauty, we jsut need to learn how to balance it, and theres no way to learn without failing atleast a few times. You need to know how, experience how to do something wrong, before you know how to do it right.
