I watched the bandits come to steal my sky
Black mask and black eyes
Black shapes spreading night
They stole the silver lining of the clouds
They took the sun and took the moon
Absconded with the stars I wish on
Held in their cruel gloved hands
All of my dreams

I swam with sharks to save you from drowning
Hungry and hateful
Sharp teeth driven by instinct
They smelled my blood in the water
Could feel my hearts broken beating
Madly longing for meat
A feeding frenzy
My flesh a feast

I died in a war to live with you
Young and hopeful
Bullets smile as they cut me down
Bombs falling as rain I try to dance in
I feel explosions in my heart
tanks and armies marching
I see enemy lines
And battles lost
