Polarized

An idea virus
is festering inside us
it spreads as it finds us
it splits and divides us.

But don’t worry now
I figured it out
I know where it’s from
and I know without doubt.

The virus resides on The Other Side,
the side that’s confused,
the side that believes
all they hear in their news.

The virus resides on The Other Side,
the side that’s not us,
they so quickly spew hate,
they are so quick to judge.

But our side is fine,
it’s done none of these things,
it will always be fine
as it always has been.

We’re sick of the hate,
we’re sick of the lies,
we’re sick of division
we are so polarized.

So don’t read any books from The Other Side,
they are so uninformed that their thoughts are deformed.

Don’t watch any news from The Other Side,
it’s nothing but hatred, propaganda, and lies.

Don’t make any friends from The Other Side,
it’s the side that is rotten and evil inside.

Don’t engage anyone from The Other Side,
they won’t see things your way,
they can’t be converted,
they’re too late to be saved.

We can’t let them speak,
divided we fall,
we cannot be weak,
we must cancel them all!

But our side is fine,
it never has sinned,
it will always be fine
as it always has been.

An idea virus

it spreads as it finds us
it splits and divides us
