The World

Watching the world swim through greed
As they speak with their tongues of deceit
Searching for a new way to breed
While not seeing death in the birth they eat

Watching the world decay in vain
As they hide with their bleeding mask of lies
Yearning for a purge of binding pain
While wishing upon the thousand bright eyes

Watching the world rise with powers
As they build their utopian empire
Crying for the dying withered flowers
While I lay in my funeral pyre

Watching the world die by obscurity
As they break with their sweetest dreams
Falling for the beauty of false purity
While turning from the angels silent screams

Watching the world welcome the hate
As they wait for the torrential flood
Dying for a hollow and somber fate
While mourning their child's lost blood
