Tears of the sun fall
dropping scalding suffering in its wake
like ****** from airplanes
its scorches land and living beings.
Crying aloud screams echo
falling like shattered trees on ears dead
slain by men, children
killing--children
I cant...
These sounds I hear
I'm going blind from screams
that fill empty space and hearts
a woeful symphony
a dreadful degree of cacophonies
conducted by inhumanity.
This is what they do
a statement repeated time again
this is what we do
turning a blind eye
is killing too.

Tears of the sun fall
dropping scalding suffering in its wake
like ****** from airplanes
its scorches land and living beings.
Crying aloud screams echo
falling like shattered trees on ears dead
slain by men, children
killing--children
I cant...
These sounds I hear
I'm going blind from screams
that fill empty space and hearts
a woeful symphony
a dreadful degree of cacophonies
conducted by inhumanity.
This is what they do
a statement repeated time again
this is what we do
turning a blind eye
is killing too.
