One Step Forward... Two Steps Back

from dusk till dawn,
let's celebrate death once again
from the breakfast table to our dinner's plate
call it tradition,
whatever you like...
i call it irrational and brutal
because we are dancing these days
disguised as rational human beings
armed with knives in our hands...
we kill everyday like cavemen
in disguise with our own hands
tainted with innocent blood slicing
skin once again, we drip blood from
filthy money depending on corporations
that are selling us death we drop our
heads in conformity as tears and screams
are released again we live in apathy and
we live in denial we take one step
forward and two steps back yet we
still call ourselves civilized to
close your eyes, to close your
heart is like denying
the beauty of life itself
