Under the ruins of a city, Is a tear not seen yet shed. Under the bowed head slowed by pity, Is a screaming heart that was never wed; To love and locks despair. Lugubrious laughter, Suffocated in pillows. Never to be seen or heard again. A joke you won’t understand, Is the Splayed fingers of a dead man; Tired souls Pay the toll To the underworld Where tears are not seen but shed. Where love and hope are made a jest. Where’s city ruins are laid to rest.

Catacombs under a city
Under the ruins of a city, Is a tear not seen yet shed. Under the bowed head slowed by pity, Is a screaming heart that was never wed; To love and locks despair. Lugubrious laughter, Suffocated in pillows. Never to be seen or heard again. A joke you won’t understand, Is the Splayed fingers of a dead man; Tired souls Pay the toll To the underworld Where tears are not seen but shed. Where love and hope are made a jest. Where’s city ruins are laid to rest.
It’s crazy that through this carona thing everyone is still acting indifferent to others suffering
