At a Place I Won'T Name
At a grim park unnamed
Gangsters play their drug games
Fallen angels find prey
The trap bigger each day
Must to feed living dead
Lest they wander away
Else who is Hell's Keeper
With no one to play
On a staircase unnamed
The indigenous wait
Haven't found nothing better
They inhale and stay
And the statue keeps staring
So heroic he looks
And commuters keep glaring
Smell of smoke has them shook
Outside a grim church unnamed
Several lost souls remain
Off to bed without supper
On the concrete again
In a country so rich
They haven't eaten one grain
Lord, rescue your children
Call them out by their names
Send the first of your angels
With some loving words to say
Tell these people the truth
And put the devil in flames
