SINCE WHEN DID I BECOME SO NUMB?

People killing children hurt
Profusely bleeding badly cut
I accept this life as it comes
Since when did I become so numb?


Vicious circle repeats again
Innocent people burnt in flames
Grotesque site I watch it mum
Since when did I become so numb?


Wrath sloth misery everywhere
No one now seems to care
It seems to me that we have succumbed
Since when did I become so numb?


Held is shackles for so long
Fighting for freedom feels so wrong
Belong to specie of mute and dumb
Since when did I become so numb?
