It Gets Worse

It gets worse
Waking up is easy
dressing in a smile is not.
Hope is expensive
It belongs to the pensive
Walking down a dark road is scary

Not walking is worse
Judging. That's what they do
Empty promise, what they give
Bribes, what they need
Not belonging to them is scary

Belonging is even worse
Blood is not thicker than water
Only if the blood is to be poured
They are all green eyed
To them, your success is scary

Success is worse still
They will expect a lot
You have to give back
Here blood is thicker
But death is scary

Death is the worst
They will fight over the dead
They wish to drown is your sweat
They forget they drenched you in tears
Those blood thirsty vipers!
Watching them in absentia
That is more scary
