Ego Driven Madness
"He could change if he wanted to!"
We whisper as he walks by
Wearing all he owns on him.
We never weigh the why.
It's that ego driven madness.
The pride that takes the fall
To give our sin the peace of mind
To hide behind these walls.
Would we be so quick to judge
If our dreams just woke up dead?
Left with nothing for us,
But the voices in our head.
We read it in the paper.
"Undesirable's going down!"
Hail the politicians war cry
For a new law to be found.
In our cruel considerations
We crack a heartless whip
Never seeing all the reasons
It could be us instead of him.
Face to face with our creator,
Would we rather stand and say
We tried to save a vagrants life?
Or left him dead to lay.
