Everywhere you go
It’s all the same
Everywhere you go it’s all the same
There’s nowhere left to turn
There’s nowhere left to hide
All you know is that your backs against the wall and there’s nowhere left to go
And that the end is nearer than you thought.

The world is dying all alone
The shining stars shine less bright
There’s no sun
For a sunset all there is, is a bloody red haze
At night crying
You find you miss daylight.

Humanity as a whole is letting it all just slips away
Just slip away.
The poor are those who fight in vain
for something they cant obtain
The rich are those who have no place to go
The middle class are those who cling along and long for life.

Everywhere you go it’s all the same
No conviction to live on,
No strength to keep on trying
No future
Just the in the now
Yet even now
Brilliant minds are dying
And everyone hides behind what they can find.

These problems
Some blame it on the poor others on the rich
They blame each other
They blame themselves.
And can’t stand no more,
Can’t stand no more.

The poor still fight to be met with only disdain
The rich still have no place inside themselves to go
And everywhere you go
You find that there’s nowhere else left to turn
In tears we watch the bloody sunset
In vain we seek the stars that were there once upon a time long ago
Brilliant minds are dying and people find
That everywhere they go
There’s nowhere left to turn
And nothing makes sense
There’s nowhere left to go
And everything seems wrong and out of place.

Everywhere you go in this wretched maze of life
It’s all the same
There’s always
Nowhere left to go
  Nowhere left to turn
   And then you know
    The end is near.

There seems to always be someone to blame for misery, but it is a good thing that we have to choice to see a light at the end of a tunnel, or a tiny glimmer of hope to keep this old race still running.

Enjoyed your poem.
