Lamentations For Immunity

Is it that we are blind? Cloistered, locked from our mind? Is it the shadow of our light That threw away the left of right? Is it the gold of many? The lust of the unpure? Who forgot we were free? Blame this sugar-coated lure Gray and brown and never red This is where humanity's led Is it unavoidable, denied from escape? Is there a gate, a virgin landscape? We are not blind, there is a sight A concealed source of colored light Under the layers of steel and gore Quest for Immunity, lament of the core
