Invaders
They looked at us with pity
We looked at them in fear
We'd found what we'd assumed was a city
For decades we'd drilled to get into here
Now we stood to see how they live
But with no intention we'd killed something here
They took us somewhere to see
Their civilisation; their planet living
Their technology so far beyond ours
We watched their forces make ready
Their commander then turned to face us
As his troops were lined up ready
He asked us to say something for our sins
Before unleashing hell on our people living
