Loss

I have memorized the words
Which I don't understand 
I have debated fiercely 
To veil my ignorance 

I stand for something 
To forget that I am falling
I am ready to sacrifice my life
Which I have never lived

I am ready to kill
Because I am dead inside
I want to destroy 
Because I am afraid of extinction 

I want to protect my culture
Because I do not understand it 
I want to destroy 'their' culture
Because I have not found mine

What am I waiting to happen
To take a pause
Madness has taken over me
And I have gone unstoppable
So that I do not know the truth 

I am searching something
Without knowing what is lost
I speak of truth 
Without knowing what is false

I put on a mask
And go on about
Following the trend 
Pretending everything is all right
