A poem I wrote after being inspired by a well-known artist.
Corrupted heroes making promises that can't exist
People believing
It makes us sick
Does it make you wonder?
It makes me think

Waiting on unanswered prayers
Did you stop to think about destiny?
The cards are dealt, nothing will help
Does it make you wonder?
It makes me think

In the distance there's the unheard cries
The fallen people waiting to die
Its the same ole' story with a brand new pawn

When the death bell tolls send in more
The planets a bore without a war
I still don't see the end of the road
Does it make you wonder?
It makes me think

Lies on lies rollin' in your head have you had enough?
It's all simpilized for your mind
The delusions just aint right
Does it make you wonder?
It makes me think

In the distance there's the unheard cries
The fallen people waiting to die
Its the same ole' story with a brand new pawn

Like a tornado it spirals around
The only way I can see is down
Enjoy it while you can until the end
Does it make you wonder?
It makes me think

Living like a robot only makes you sink
The line for judgement's 'round the corner
It's time for you to think
Does it ever make you wonder?
Cause it really makes me think.
