I Grieve

And so i'm now sixty-four
What did i achieve
I look back in time
And learnt how to grieve

I grieve for the living
I grieve for the dead
I grieve for the loss of love
And grieve for things unsaid

I grieve for the loss of humanity
And the brutality of this race
I grieve for the insanity
And the loss of a loving embrace

I grieve for all the abused children
And their mothers who have died in vain
And the multitude of starving millions
And for those that feel this pain

I grieve for the state of the environment
And a climate that wont be changed
I grieve with the reality of it all
That our future lies in the hands of the deranged

Who believe their wealth will save them
When the planet finally falls apart
I grieve for their ignorance
And i grieve for my broken heart
