105. False Optimists Poem by Jaden Knight

Ok this for all those optimists out there
who think that the world's fine
and that everything is going to be ok
I know you guys are lying
cause your going to get paid any way

Who are you trying to fool
everyone knows
what a skeletal wreck of a world this is
a shadow of its former glory
not that we'd ever know
cause no one had told us
no one gets reincarnated any more

Mankind has grown weak
bringing down everything with it
more species are extinct
more habitats destroyed
people are too busy trying to out do each other
to even care about the environment
what little of it is left
it's no good praying for the survival of all
cause no one listens any way

And what would happen if God did come back
what would he do to make things right
he'd probably have to start over again
but before he did he'd have to remember

Man invented murder and the sport of killing
woman created treachery and the game of betrayal
so why should God even bother to make the same mistake
and trust any one with this planet
maybe he'll try trusting Satan instead
he might keep the earth in a better state

Just don't create an Eden
cause it'll only get destroyed
all your dreams fading to dust
falling like the ashes as it slowly burns
your dreams turning to nightmares

Some people look forward to their eternal rest
hoping that the world will have changed
when they come back
that man kind will have changed this planet
back to the glory of what it was

So you pessimists and others can shut up
cause the future can't be predicted
maybe the forecasts should be compared
to see which one is right
trouble is we'll just never know
