Humanity Reaps Our Own

Another day dawns for the innocent, woe to the ones who tremor in the sun Whose deeds are forgotten time goes on Leaving despair, with which you must bare Burdens greater than sin can stand for Greater than the ones we believed we cared for Greater than the rights that we must share, for though Jesus said to have spared man's soul Man said to have reaped what another sowed To have burnt his brother and dug a hole Where lives taken, are to be sowed Humanity now reaps our own.
