Casualties of war
Godlike? No. Human? Maybe.
Yet living above the bones of dead babies,
Who fell to their deaths from the top of the world;
The forgotten, the miscarried, the unfortunate boys and girls.
Now the babies lie with bullets;
Sanctity no longer exists.
Once upon a time, we were all for it,
Now we just wish this war would cease.
Fire! Called the Sergeant as the Germans advanced.
Onward called the General, as the men became entrenched,
In the trenches and fell to their knees;
Some prayed to the lord above, others fell...
Yet living above the bones of dead babies,

Now we just wish this war would cease.

In the trenches and fell to their knees;
Some prayed to the lord above, others fell...

Rockabye Homie
You thought you were a savage until you got hit with that goddamnit
So now you're having one hell of a time attempting to manage
To catch your breath as you come closer and closer to death
Guess you should've heeded the warnings and avoided your missteps
But you chose not to be bright and soon your soul will be headed to the light
It's was well past your bedtime so rockabye homie. It's time to say goodnight
I fear no man in this universe. Not even the one many perceive as being GOD
So you should've thought twice before approaching me acting like...

Sublime Slumber
A man sleeps in a mausoleum, where the dead reside
Where bones of ancestors lay, in silent pride
He seeks a place of rest, and peace from the world
A refuge from the noise, where his mind can unfurl
The corpses and tombs, they converse with the night
Whispers of reverence, in the flickering light
For in this crypt of comfort, he finds solace and ease
A reprieve from the chaos, that's never to cease
The silence is his sanctuary, as he lays among the dead
Where the weight of life's troubles, are finally shed
The ancestors...
Where bones of ancestors lay, in silent pride
He seeks a place of rest, and peace from the world
A refuge from the noise, where his mind can unfurl
The corpses and tombs, they converse with the night
Whispers of reverence, in the flickering light
For in this crypt of comfort, he finds solace and ease
A reprieve from the chaos, that's never to cease
The silence is his sanctuary, as he lays among the dead
Where the weight of life's troubles, are finally shed
The ancestors...

Elegy for little angels flown to heaven
Alas, the bereaved mothers, the poor mommies
Who see only mummies of their sons in nightmarish slumber
Left behind hugging dreary stony tombstones
While hearts harder than sepulchres
are the assasins
with no pity for those in their prime.
Loved ones lost to an unseen netherworld before their time
Killed in atrocious senseless crime
All the nurturing care and motherhood tossed to the winds
Maternal hearts bereaved until their own demise
Moving on easier suggested than done.
Their only hope and consolation
A hereafter family...
Who see only mummies of their sons in nightmarish slumber
Left behind hugging dreary stony tombstones
While hearts harder than sepulchres
are the assasins
with no pity for those in their prime.
Loved ones lost to an unseen netherworld before their time
Killed in atrocious senseless crime
All the nurturing care and motherhood tossed to the winds
Maternal hearts bereaved until their own demise
Moving on easier suggested than done.
Their only hope and consolation
A hereafter family...
