Down with Us

July 3, 2014


 

Can you feel it?

The mist in the air

And the rain in your hair

As concepts become a blur

And deception is more.

While humming birds destroy

Let the world turn around

Seeing flowers in the sky

And clouds on the ground

And tears all around

That destruction is coming alive.

With no time to say goodbye

But run and cry

Because what you did

Left us un-alive

And that’s worst of all

Since you hurt us all.

So hello to the end

And goodbye to guilt

For it was your pride

That tipped us all

Being unable to admit

To the crimes that you committed

To destroying our home

That was formally known as

Mother Earth.
