the game

by emma-*gemini* - Not entered

society is a game
some people just can't play
the world passes them by
they can't keep up

it all becomes too much
they can't live anymore
what is this world coming to?
it's killing its own kids

people lose the game
they forfeit or give up
these people are not forgotten
we've learned from them

we must avenge their deaths
defy the constraints of society
we can't be pulled down
it can't win again

Reason for writing:

    actually a song i wrote after one of my friends committed suicide. she made me hurt more than i could imagine, and i blame society for her death
