The Generation of Disappointed

http://amoretdoesntdrawwell.deviantart.com/

This is the generation of disappointed,
with hearts of stone, and minds disjointed;
with belief of non-believers anointed;
their leaders of inverted virtue appointed.

They're all so different -
they're the same;
they make the rules and deny their game;
they dig their holes and others blame;
they light their fires and fear the flame.

They walk in darkness - fluorescent sun;
they live for gain - and leave with none;
their hope lies in lies - the truth they shun;
They can't see value, their game has won.

The prize? More lies to sooth the sorrow;
the cynical cycle starts again tomorrow;
few break free and most just borrow;
they're crippled by their soul's great cargo.
