Magical Words Bitterness and betrayal are magical words That roll off the tongue so easily They feed off each other as if they were people And bring society together One may wrestle with his fears Or try to answer questions of life But to look to deep is to sacrifice Your pride and justification Just look to the magical words of answers They must be right, since we have used them for so long Seclusion from the world Is a common side effect of this method But a price so small as that Must be to good to be true Sure if you decide to seclude you may miss the moon at night Or the sun shining bright But isn’t it enough to be alive When you know all the answers to life Grief is also a by-product Of the worlds magical words But isn’t it great when you become the grand magician And all of your subjects are beneath you Ready for a command Just raise your hand and they will cheer And vote you in another year You’ve brainwashed their minds To believe you’re right And you’ve taught them the magic too One is not born with this gift Children do not know That the world they face Is heading to a new phase One where we expand the definition Of our precious magic terms We now include things like violence and hate But don’t look so surprised You seem to forget That is how societies are raised |

unfortunately these "magical words" are all too common. these have been the driving force of society for far too long. but i also think that the new generation is seeing this for what it is. and is refusing to accept it. things can change, if enough people will work together for that change. and things certainly do need to change. anyway, well done. very thought provoking. |
