I am torn apart
Between right and wrong
What road am I supposed to take…
It is so obvious
So why as why?
Everyone knows to take
The damned road
That frees us all
Of all that could be painful
Frees us all
Of our worldly possessions
So why do we ask why
It is a dumb question
Better yet a rhetorical question
For a question like that
Requires no such answer
So why so we sit
Moping around all day
Crying over our losses
Or our failures
Why can’t we build upon
The bad and make it good
Or learn from our mistake
We know that half the stuff
We do is wrong
But we continue
To do as we wish
Do we see anyone who
Really does what they
Are supposed to do?
Definitely not
So exactly why do we
Take the hardest way out
Cheating ourselves of all
That is great to us
All that could make us
Such happier people
The answer to that question
Is such an obvious one…
It is because we are human.
