LIFE IS WAR


Strong enough to stand alone in a blitz

Bombarded...

Deception after deception after deception 

It will never stop

It will never seize

It's life's cold hearted tactic made to rid of the weak.

Buildings are tumbling down

Bridges are burnt

No one is on sight from shore to shore.

It's a journey you must take alone.

The pavements might be gone but you must follow the road.

Tick tick tick there's no time for doubts just call to action.

BOOM

Living is strength and the greatest reaction.
