In a world full of terror
we lead an inconsistent war
in which we inflict terror
in search of those that we abhor
But for what reason?
Not for freedom
Not for love
Nor knowledge
but to even a score
like a schizophrenic seagull
circling an imaginary shore.
In a world full of terror
we've created the foundation
from beach to beach and
across the sea floor
which buckles and spreads
as the Earth heats her core.
This silence is violent
perhaps even more than before
as we look to the east and can see
that the sky is on fire
and it's raining debris.
Can you hear the children screaming
as they fall to their knees???
to pray for peace
and an end to their grief???
