Ugly World

How can it be that the one who gives everything,

Receives nothing in return

How is it that our big hearts

Get crushed by the ones that 'love' us

Can't there still be love in this world

Except for the unharmed babies and children

How do we end up so broken

That suicide is a common escape

All we do now is push everyone else down

And call that true happiness

We've lost all sense of the phrase

True happiness

How is it that people's bitterness

Bring down the best people

It doesn't add up that the ugly at heart

Win out in most things in life

Things are better with racism now

But sexism is a long way to go

How'd we end up with this ugly world.
