It's a wonder the good
Bear to live in this world
Where man's sins and ignorance
Are fully unfurled

They seem to see nothing
Beyond all their desires
Instead of striving for truth
They pander to liars

They also seem not to pay heed
When true words are spoken clear
Instead of hearing with their hearts
They turn in ignorant fear

How have we gotten into this mess
Where goodness and kindness are rare
And the majority of the human race
Is living in despair

I'll tell you why we're in this mess
That continues with us still
Because all those souls with big black holes
Can't seem to get their fill
