Better That Way

When will people notice 

Transparent tears slip down the cheeks of everyone 

There are scars on everyone there is so much pain that society is numb 

Its overwhelming and confusing 

Cuts and blood 

Art etched into skin 

Beauty is only skin deep

But what happens when we expose flesh and let our insides run out 

What if we no longer let this mind numbing society consume our attention?

What if we stopped crying?

These questions wont be answered because we're paying attention to bad news and human disasters 

We live in a society where people are turning to suicide as an escape 

Feeling there's no other choice than to be called "insane"

"They were just another basket case" 

People will brush it off 

Callous and ignorant 

WHY!?

What do we have to do for a little remorse or sympathy?

We were told when we were young to love

And when someone died although we didn't understand tears would rush into our eyes and slide down our cheeks 

Maybe it was better that way
