Lebenon
A city sitting on top of a powder keg
a time bomb was ticking but nobody heard
the dead and the injured the wounded and lame
cried for true justice but ever in vain
whilst greed and corruption be ever preserved
and the world just looked on as Lebenon begged
the cripple we pass and say "Oh" such a shame
a time bomb was ticking but nobody heard
the dead and the injured the wounded and lame
cried for true justice but ever in vain
whilst greed and corruption be ever preserved
and the world just looked on as Lebenon begged
the cripple we pass and say "Oh" such a shame

It's like sending truckloads of "Thoughts & Prayers" vs action. Solid poem, Slip.
