i‘m waking

in

this

wasteland

forsaken

and outcast

the

shame

is

damning

the

guilt‘s

crushing

and darkness

has

fallen

what

have

we

done?

our hands stained

with

their blood

injustice

has

befallen

we

have become

like dead leaves shed

like

empty

shells cast away

like

dying embers

forlorn and forsaken, forsaken

dead leaves shed

like

empty

shells cast away

like

dying embers

orphaned and widowed

and

leaden

the

distress

of

the

knowledge

of evil

the scales fell and left nothing

than black tears of lostness

the blood on our hands witnesses

sheer desolation has befallen

repent

return

recure

restore
