In the crosshairs and blasts
Grim shadows of strife unfold
death and destruction
they have conquered the enemy
children silenced, doctors mourned
murdered the charity workers
murdered the refugees in churches
masses weakened by hunger's grasp
in echoes of desolation
they won
they killed them all
evil no longer exists
if you're Alice in Wonderland's sway,
illusions blur
the devils tongue has had its way
