These words
expressed through tears
vanished by the screams of hatred
carried on by the singing birds

These words grow
inside of us all
careless of who we are
whether we are big or small

These words eat us
scrambling our insides
mixing up our words
blocking out what we once trust

These words succeed
carry out determination
enforce concentration
give us everything we need

These words confuse
uncertain on what is real
nothing makes sense
plastered with lost thoughts

These words interpret
spreading humorous lies
exaggerated meanings
judging people without reasoning

These words relate to us all
these words change lives
these words deceive us all
these words remember us all
