The Oceans Died

And so the day it came to pass They just gave up, the oceans died, No life at all, a dead morass It was a day that angels cried. We watched them in their dying throes Never taking time to tend the need, There was a different path we could have chose But we were blind and deaf, so took no heed. Now begin our starving times No fruitful bounties from the sea, No need now for net nor line, We have forged a desperate destiny.
