Want to get rid of these ads?

it is a sarcastic and somewhat pessimistc look at what goes around, and how do we react to it

We live in a world,

Where white is a lie and gray seems cleaner.

We live in a world,

Where bullet hits hard and faith hits harder.

But let it be…

Tell me, why should we bother?

This is our world,

Where gods wear a mask and make devil truer.

This is our world

Where screams are a routine and silence spreads terror.

But let it be…

Tell me, why should we bother?
