We can never have peace

Someone always messes it up

Jealousy, greed, arrogance, stupidity

We should probably just give up

We hide behind masks,

and tell tales that are tall

No one notices, but I watch

Our pile of progress crumble and fall

You want it all

You are selfish; you only think of you

But you don't know

what your wishful thinking leads to

The actuality is hidden behind the trees

There is no escape in lands near or far

If we can never have peace,

Then we can only have war

You mean war.

I mean war.

They mean war.

This means war.
