Symphony of Silence throughout the night Doors and windows latched and locked tight Sleeping softly as dreams ****** Troubled times when morals where subdued We’re shoulder to shoulder with the **** or the *** Look at themn's with the same eyes, not down the barrel of a gun The pasts only purpose now, Make the blind clearly see The mistakes they made with their ****** corrupt legacy It’s quiet in the cities cobbled streets, the birds pick at first light Emerge from their nests, Like our generation glimpses first sight The new formed world from the rubble of this war No emblem or flag can heal wounds this vicious or raw Brick by Brick, The walls of Peace rose to keep in hate There’s no more guerrillas in the street, Only as heads of State The Family divided, A Birds clipped wing This Island, Our home, Shared together or Squandered Alone

Troubled
Symphony of Silence throughout the night Doors and windows latched and locked tight Sleeping softly as dreams ****** Troubled times when morals where subdued We’re shoulder to shoulder with the **** or the *** Look at themn's with the same eyes, not down the barrel of a gun The pasts only purpose now, Make the blind clearly see The mistakes they made with their ****** corrupt legacy It’s quiet in the cities cobbled streets, the birds pick at first light Emerge from their nests, Like our generation glimpses first sight The new formed world from the rubble of this war No emblem or flag can heal wounds this vicious or raw Brick by Brick, The walls of Peace rose to keep in hate There’s no more guerrillas in the street, Only as heads of State The Family divided, A Birds clipped wing This Island, Our home, Shared together or Squandered Alone
The North is quite simply, The most politically and culturally frustrating place to live in, Beyond people feeling so self entitled believing that their culture is better than anyone else's we are cannon fodder to the representatives who regularly pit one side against the other in order to enhance personal and political agenda, Do not read this believing that one side is more or less guilty than the other. Both sides of the co-existing divide are guilty of things beyond the comprehension of the wider population. I Wrote this in one of my moments of frustration.
