The Evil

By Steve Kelly

Life threatening fury existing within
Thoughts of a society ridden with sin
War will surround us in its flood we will drown
The future of mankind comes tumbling down
With the fall of society the people in fear
The Time Of The End Has Now Drawn Near
Madness erupting your sanity's maimed
The horror and suffering is all that remains
Battle exploding catastrophe reigns
In this world we've created tell me who is to blame?
Hatred rising cannot be contained
Feeds off the evil that exists in our brains
Try to control it your attempt is in vain
The only thoughts in our minds
Are the thoughts that give pain
Releasing anger in a blinding rage
A wave of violence brings the end of our days
The causes for gain is what brought us this shame
Evil is bred in our minds and our veins
Chaotic choices of man have led us to the end
Destroyer of all life is the evil within
Invisible is the warning unseen are the signs
As we're cast into the darkness
'Til The End Of Time. . .

    Sometimes it feels as though eyes are not open, and ours are open too wide. Love the commentary on society’s failures and our culture of blind obedience

    This seemed very raw and personal, is this from a personal Injustice or is this bigger than that?

    It's more of a comment on society/the world we live in. . .
