We Aren'T Lost To Green An Gold
As consciousness rose
so did the shadows in men,
until the white sun rises
and leaves turn unfolding Zen
In the long grass of sleep we all lay
awaiting the awakening to life,
innocence filled our atoms
but we breathed in being and strife
In all the evil that’s been bourn
perpetuating the threat of old,
is the rotten heart of humanity
and with stealthy legs he rolls
As lessons of history were shared
the sins of time have repeated,
and the hordes filled with hate
storm the Tara pets at our feet
Until hate is colour blind
and all gods are held up,
and the mantel in the flame
is blown and fully caught
We are lost but not in vain
will this fight be forever fought,
be not afraid for in our veins
is courage breed and brought
I have faith with sanity and time
this blackness will fill with light,
and tomorrows will be bolden-ed
as purity glows crystal bright
Watching the pictures flicker by
scored with suffering and pain,
it's then that i fear this world
will never know innocence again
I feel the pureness in the flow
as the breezes brush my face,
in the universe no miracle holds
a candle to the blue of this place
Please ignore this simple child
polluted and poisoned by life,
I just want to see an end to war
before my last rays of light
