the forshaken
Ten thousand times ten thousand
Weeping and wailing
In this city of lost souls
Young and old
Male and female
Lamenting for an eternity
Floating through each other
Without feeling
Each carrying the shackles of past life
Who could redeem them?
The forsaken
Not you or I
What crimes
To cause such anguish
I see them
Hear there cries
Not a single one sought redemption
Never to hear the final trumpet
