Fire in the Box

Fire in the Box

Peering through the flat screen,        
Our shattered looking glass

Death and despair everywhere         
Society flaming out

The  beast we have created
Has finally turned on us

The violence we glorified
Now a national nightmare

What use to be a video game
Becoming more and more real

Now is the time to atone for our sins        
Put the angry genie back in the bottle

Or we will be the victims on the flat screen
Cannon fodder for the Evening News
