End

water runs red
earth soaked in bloodshed
resting grounds dug deep
bodies scattered
children screaming
piercing ears, carried on the wind
a plague drifts through
slowly seeking out the world
Armegeddeon
caused not by our enemies
caused not by nature
but  by ourselves
Religion rules the land
Politics rule the people
but neither power strong enough
A plague of Hatred
destroys all
Soon we shall have no more enemies
only ourselves to turn on
Apocolyptic sound
End of it All
