When you fight fire with fire, your just get burned.
My heart feels like its ripping out of my stomach.
No one can tell me to stop smiling.
I woke up this morning feeling on top of the world.
Why does it matter?
Deep in the back of my head I still have that shame.
The shame of my peers, my society, myself.
Nothing will ever be perfect.
Someone will always be hurt.
Someone will always have fear.
I went from that great, joyful feeling to wanting to cry and scream.
So you wonder, why don't I?
Well, the answer lies behind that door of horror.
The horror of everyone around me.
Why can't I find the key to open the door?
No one can.
No one can or will take a stance.
Do we not see what's happening to our world?
Slowly, its burning piece by piece.
Now I am not saying I haven't ever made fun of someone, gossiped or said something mean.
Yes, i admit I have.
But why?
It doesn't do anything good.
It might make us feel on top of the world for a second or two but then, the whole world burns again.
So that's the key. You go from feeling good because you did something bad to feeling bad because you know someone was hurt.
When you fight fire with fire, you just get burned.
