Look

The world is a trap.

A trap you build yourself,

Each person is a part of a race

Of who can build their walls highest to protect themself.

The fear of the unknown,

Of what is outside the wall

Keeps their true selves from being shown.

I stepped above my wall to see,

Took in the entire world

A small piece that I knew I would need

The truth laid out in front of me.

We're all in the same game,

Every man for themselves.

We all feel the same pain,

Just different levels.

We're all in the same hell,

Faced with different devils.
