doomsday

Doomsday  

                             As the Doomsday clock  

                             Inches towards twelve  

                            For some of the reasons  

                            Where shall we delve 

 

                            Is it the need     

                           For complete control 

                          From our so-called leaders  

                          Who lack empathy or souls 

 

                        A world that lives  

                        In constant fear  

                       Of Government tyrants  

                       Who seem to have no ears  

 

                       Who will not listen  

                       To the common folk 

                       Think war and death  

                       Are their protective cloak 

 

                      But if they had  

                      To enter and fight  

                      Might change their thinking  

                      And try make things right  

                     

                       Hear no evil, say no evil  

                      Do no evil soon 

                      Or the consequence of your actions  

                      May lead to our Doom
