The World is a Frightening Place

The World is a Frightening Place

The world is a frightening place 
Where acting your age is wrong 
Where beauty is achieved by changing your face 
Where innocence rarely lasts for long

We live in a world where drama is fun
Where, when it comes to your body, you must stay wary
Where the average person is a hypocrite 
We live in a world where the victim also has a gun
Where kindness is scary,
Without knowing the meaning behind it.
