Nothing but shattered glass
where the emerald city stood
the remittance of dreams shattered
echo's of a distant stars and pasts

This is where the blind girl cried
her cheeks covered in blood
this is where the bomb went off
and all her dreams obliterated

The swans with broken necks
drag themselves to her side
and in her agony she dies
in the burning she resides

As she fades from view
children wave playing with fire
she smiles politely
then disappears in a black hue

She is the dark future
a way man might become
a smiling puppy
dying for a home
