And thus the World turns.....

Is this how you treat them?
Back them into a corner,
With no escape,
But to surrender and become,
The thing they most despise.

Is this how you treat them?
Break their spirits and their hopes,
Hearts turned so hard and cold,
Inevitable becomes:
Turn their backs n lose their faith.

Is this how you treat them?
That they lose, what once defined them,
Lament then you will,
"Where is this world going to?
Where have all the innocents gone?"
