All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us

A silver line of hope unheard Droplets of tears poured into the oceans The line between right and wrong blurred Rebels taking over locations Liquor doused around our bodies Light a fire to ignite our blindness Bloody crimes in all alleys All smiles filled with sadness All lines all filled up For the lonely hearts club Bodies being aggressively groped With no consent being shown Countries becoming war-torn zones Souls leaving this earth one by one Blood spilt by different skin tones I guess the only option is to run. Earth being left decayed Everyone left alone and afraid Take a look at the disaster that's made What an unnecessary serenade And after all that’s happened Where are our saviours? Our hearts deeply blackened Why must we seek help at alters? Aren’t they supposed to come when we’re in distress? Not even when we scream out an SOS? Does it cost to walk the stairway to heaven? Or do we have to fight in the armageddon? Let the light find a way The world’s destiny will be weighed Did everyone’s faith lead to mistrust? Or have all our gods abandoned us?
