The Origin of Suffering

I'm afraid of the world outside
 Always looking for a place to hide
 Torn apart by the world we know
 I can never find a place to go
 In silence, I wonder
 How much more I can take
 It's pulling me under
 I'm seething, not breathing
 It's pushing me too far
 Walking blindly on the tightest rope
 Far beyond the point of any hope
 You're surrounded by your deepest fear
 Now your ending is becoming clear
 Your madness, is quickly
 Tearing your life apart
 In sadness, move swiftly
 You're gnawing and calling
 You'll never make it out
 We've created everything we hate
 Sold it to ourselves at bargain rates
 Kill each other on a single word
 Drown it out so it's never heard
 Compassion, reaction
 Just never comes on time
 Our lives are a fraction
 Of worthy, self-action
 We've thrown it all away
