Another war to fight

Apr 23, 2008 20:12


The American horrors of obesity, rap, and Abercrombie have taken over the world. Everyone scorns my lack of patriotism and my vehement attitude towards the Pledge. "No country is better than America. You'll find that out soon enough," sneered one of my classmates. I reluctantly agreed with him. Wherever I decide to live, I will have to face the influence of American culture. The world IS America. Don't you see it?

And people are so ignorant and fake. They don't even care that America is reaping its economic rewards at the expense of the environment. It's sickening. They just keep electing officals who don't give a damn about them or their home.

I would resort to the medieval practice of blood-letting like my classmates have done, but I am not very fond of blood or ugly scars on my wrists. I am enduring extreme mental pain that I would love to relieve by cutting my skin open, but (again) I am weak at the sight of blood.

A few people have asked me if I ever considered suicide. Of course I have considered it. I have considered why people would take their own lives at the expense of their friends' happiness. Personally, I am afraid of death. It is a very terrifying thing that shouldn't be taken lightly.

A voice from Death, solemn and strange, in all his sweep and power
With sudden, indescribable blow--towns drown'd--humanity by thousands slain
Yea, Death, we bow our faces, veil our eyes to thee
-Walt Whitman

And to top it all off, there was a fire in my neighborhood today. I was in the mood to watch a suburban home burn to the ground, but I couldn't find the location of the fire. It was extremely depressing.

I don't understand why I am writing this blog anyway. No one cares. No one.

Why is love so hard to find?

I don't even like Good Charlotte, but I have always loved their song, "We Believe." It's beautiful.

There's a woman crying out tonight
Her world has changed
She asks God why
Her only son has died
And now her daughter cries
She can't sleep at night

Downtown
Another day for all the suits and ties
Another war to fight
There's no regard for life
How do they sleep at night
How can we make things right?
Just wanna make this right

We are all the same
Human in all our ways and all our pain
There's a love that could fall down like rain
Let forgiveness wash away the pain
And no one really knows what they are searching for
This world is crying for so much more

P.S. This was an Emo blog....I was testing out Diana's rules. XD
