Dust To Dust
Dust From Dust
Carve the stone that forms the jewel
From Cities dust to Countries rule
Fake or genuine none shall tell
The integrity of fellow man
Beast to burden
Man so unkind
Loyalty so rare to find
Beneath the rubble of falling lives
The destructive weapon, the knowing lies
Before I cave, lose my belief
Before from the mountain top I leap
Into the gaping vast below
I seek reprieve from those I know
Tell me there are gem's to find
Salt of the earth
The staying kind
Don't let the minefield be owned to war
Bring back the good old days
Like we knew before
Feel Water from the eyes of God
A simple prayer, a knowing nod
Clothe the world in love and trust
Not clothes of a diamond's deathly dust
