All That's Left
All must yield!
For none have the right of way
Who are We?
But slaves to the passing day...
For all had their chances,
And chose to let pass
Reflecting time wasted
To replace as the past...
History remains silent,
As the future is deaf
Faded memoirs of the past
Becoming all that’s left
Freedom set before us
But choices aren’t so clear
Living is never easy,
When hatred finds your fear...
But still We resist
Lifting the last leg
What have We to gain...
By driving the stake?
Not a leg to stand
And tomorrow’s forsaken deaf;
Memories of yester year...
Are becoming all that’s left.
