This isn’t a world where we deem suicide okay.
This is a world where we judge people for their sins and not for our own.
We like to brag about ourselves, but leave out our evil deeds.
We like to tell people right from wrong when we don’t even know the definition of the two words.
And then go rob an old man blind. How can we make peace with each other when we can’t make peace with ourselves?
How can we reason with ourselves when we lie about everything else?
The truth is that everyone one is a hypocrite by chance.
Everyone is a liar by default.
And everyone has had that unbearable feeling of loneliness at least once in their life. No one wants to admit to the bad things in life, or see the evil things I see.
We like to live in Fairy-tale Land.
Where the lies are forever told, and the dreams are forever unbroken.
