Hopeless


Destruction everywhere

Far or near

Life is getting harder to bear

Lights are dimming

Darkness is conquering

Blood is seeping

Hear humanity scream

Watch it contort into an ugly being

No one is listening

War cries echo

There is no hero

Either way a foe

Innocence was lost centuries ago.
