Walking the pasture Green and pure Without flaw Without ruin Grass stands stall River running through it Orchards stretched far Gardens of purity Peaceful serenity No worry or hate There be naught But calm winds No shadow here Tis beauty all around Where time be still Heaven's reflections But a river Flowing in the midst Made with tears Tears of pain Children dying For greed and power Wealth and darkness Meaningless cause The gardens of divine Serene clarity All we leave behind All we taught The poisons and toxins Tainting the gullible Easily accessible Innocent minds The world we made Scorched Earth Came the rain Flooding the world We could have risen Beyond physicality Beyond Existence Connected to the River Eyes set upon selfishness Hearts gaze upon ruin Deep within the Earth Enriched in blood River of blood Naught one could do Nothing but to watch As life comes crashing down The golden gates They stand locked Keeping us away What we do not deserve Heaven above Earth below Hell in the midst Persisting through time The river was pure Twas a marvel A beautiful design We sacrificed for this The Darkness Lost hope Shattered dreams Breaking streams Strides of nothing Nothing but hate Naught but death Blood and tears Hopelessness without goodness The river cries, it's gone Thou doth not witness naught Blinded eyes, blind heart Thou art a beauty And we killed thee Torment unto thee Look at what we've done The river beckons Call for a higher plain We ignore it time and time again We seek in life but never find

"The River"
Walking the pasture Green and pure Without flaw Without ruin Grass stands stall River running through it Orchards stretched far Gardens of purity Peaceful serenity No worry or hate There be naught But calm winds No shadow here Tis beauty all around Where time be still Heaven's reflections But a river Flowing in the midst Made with tears Tears of pain Children dying For greed and power Wealth and darkness Meaningless cause The gardens of divine Serene clarity All we leave behind All we taught The poisons and toxins Tainting the gullible Easily accessible Innocent minds The world we made Scorched Earth Came the rain Flooding the world We could have risen Beyond physicality Beyond Existence Connected to the River Eyes set upon selfishness Hearts gaze upon ruin Deep within the Earth Enriched in blood River of blood Naught one could do Nothing but to watch As life comes crashing down The golden gates They stand locked Keeping us away What we do not deserve Heaven above Earth below Hell in the midst Persisting through time The river was pure Twas a marvel A beautiful design We sacrificed for this The Darkness Lost hope Shattered dreams Breaking streams Strides of nothing Nothing but hate Naught but death Blood and tears Hopelessness without goodness The river cries, it's gone Thou doth not witness naught Blinded eyes, blind heart Thou art a beauty And we killed thee Torment unto thee Look at what we've done The river beckons Call for a higher plain We ignore it time and time again We seek in life but never find
