Can we have come so far,
To only fall away again?
Humanity decrepit,
Contorted and insane.
Are we all so stupid
To let the fires burn
Away our souls forever,
With no return?
What value are our children?
Its as if we just don't care,
We make them play with dynamite,
A poisoned Chalice share.
What price for life?
It doesn't matter anymore.
Its just a game of football,
Counting up the blood-let score.
Why has our father left us,
As lunatics alone?
We're sad, mad headless chickens
No-one hears above the drone.
Where is the hero,
with vision, guts and power,
To stand against the demons,
To end the endless war?
This is a leaderless society
All we like sheep have gone astray,
Death will eat our hearts out,
When life gets turned away.
