Run by corrupt officials
Terrorized by the darkness of the outside world
Shed the crimson blood
Let it flow
Just takes
One stab
One shot
One match
One pull of the trigger
One twist of the handle
One spark on the hardwood floor
Destroying that which came before
Building higher trying to reach the heavens
Undeserving useless flesh
Let it flow
Just takes
One stab
One shot
One match
One pull of the trigger
One twist of the handle
One spark on the hardwood floor
No regard for precious life
Throwing out unborn, soul deprived husks
Laughing as instruments of life are taken
Dying bodies left in tubs of ice
Let it flow
Just takes
One stab
One shot
One match
One pull of the trigger
One twist of the handle
One spark on the hardwood floor
Do we deserve this life?
Do we deserve to serve the Holy Father and Mother Earth?
Do we deserve this life?
Why do we shed our brotherhood's blood?
Do we deserve this life?
Destroying that which gives life, does that make us happy?
Do we deserve life?
All equal in the eye of the Lord but why not in each other’s?
One stab
One shot
One match
One pull of the trigger
One twist of the handle
One spark on the hardwood floor
Lost in the darkness of self
Can the way out be found?
Drowning in the pool of darkness
Will there ever be air again?
Falling into the canyon of darkness
When will the soulless husk finally hit the ground?
Do we deserve this life?
Do we deserve to serve the Holy Father and Mother Earth?
Do we deserve this life?
Why do we shed our brotherhood's blood?
Do we deserve this life?
Destroying that which gives life, does that make us happy?
Do we deserve life?
All equal in the eye of the Lord but why not in each other’s?
Do we deserve to serve the Holy Father and Mother Earth?
Why do we shed our brotherhood's blood?
Destroying that which gives life, does that make us happy?
All equal in the eye of the Lord but why not in each other’s?
Do we deserve...
Do we deserve...
Do we deserve...
Why don't we attempt to deserve.
- Title: Mortality
- Artist: Karak15
- Description: Thre were a few things that set me off this summer, uncaring politicians (like that's anything new), Listening to Land of Confusion and Disturbed songs didn't help either. So this is meant to show the Arrogance/uselessness of mankind and emphasize our mortality. I originaly posted this in a guild and now it is currently on my profile.

- Brilliant, it employs an infectious message masked a well written poem meant to appeal to a certain yet large audience. Please continue your work. It is enjoyable to know some one else sees the how blind humanity is.
