We fight that which we don't understand
We fear that which is different than ourselves
We persecute those that don't believe what we believe
Call them monsters, call them enemies
Say they threaten our ways
What are they doing wrong?
Existing?
To them, we're the monsters, the enemy
Because we try so hard to change them
To fight their ways
Why?
We're all humans
We all live, breathe, think, and feel
We bleed, we cry, we laugh
How are we so different?
Acceptance is a lie
There's no such thing
Every single person in the world will have something about them
That someone else doesn't like
Every person in the world will have someone that doesn't like them
But to act upon those dislikes
Only creates more tension
And tension leads to anger, which leads to pain and death
Even knowing these results
We still do that which causes anguish
Why?
