A Reason..

There was always a reason,
There was always something to be gained,
Now there are only bones to be broken,
And ankles to be chained,
There was always a matter,
There was always a cause,
Now there is only pain,
And agony after the wars,
There used to be conquests,
There used to be prisoners that would never die,
Now there are only slaves,
Those run to their cells and curl up and cry,
There used to be honesty,
Now there is nothing but greed,
That gives way to hell,
As the filthy riches spread their seed,
There used to be life,
But now there is nothing at all,
There used to be a majestic kingdom,
Now it's ready to crumble and fall,
There used to be a reason,
A way for us all to live,
But we have stolen everything,
And now there is nothing to give.
