Together

We want to get her

Together we were

To chase away fear

Divided we become

As fear invades everyone’s dreams

***

We become violent for love

but afraid of losing life

We sacrifice to survive

Kill to live and hate more to progress

***

We guess life is this little girl

That we wish to possess

Despite she is always for us all

We still want to chase her

***

We think we were together

We only become strong to get her

But evil, for one another

And envious we still are of her

***

As we party and smile together

We hate one another

Because she is part of us all

While each one wants her to be only theirs

***

Since we can’t survive without her

We make joy tinier

And life, messier than ever

***

Together we are dreaming about fear

Wishing life wasn’t fearful

But creating even more fears

As we fight to get her
