Broken Promises

Failure proliferating
I'd expect nothing less
Molded by a system that's intoxicating
Effortless broken promises

Do you worry often?
Do you believe the madness?
Do you wait for the noise to soften?
Do you wait for a moment of silence?

Bold and willful statements 
Wrapped in wishful thinking
A string of hope lasts forever 
A string of lies destroys the latter
