Burning

Our existence seems to be looking forward. Yet we only fall behind. We save the world just to save ourselves. False sincerity dies with time. The type of life we all wish to lead is lacking morals by design. I'm looking for a future. I dream of hope. I'll take whatever I can find. What will become of the human race? Do we see this world burning(feel it burn). What makes it so seductive to lead a life that's self destructive? Burning. We act so ashamed, yet we don't change. We only feed the flame. What will become of the human race? Do we see this world burning(feel it burn). We retreat to avoid the madness. The madness we've constructed. We ignited the fires, now we feed the flames of a planet we've abducted. In too deep now we race with time and we try to be productive, but we won't sacrifice how we live our lives. So we are only self destructive.
