Rest

Rest

A Poem by Complex Disaster
"

A song that's still in the works.

"
The howls of the falling, piercing the night
A dark cloud comes crawling, to smother the light
The beasts of the earth open their hands
For what little you're worth, you owe it to this land
So sleep for now, there's a long road ahead
Your toil in these fields, has made up your bed

And lo the ships that will carry you away, you built them with your blood
And all the beasts of night that left you horrified, have drowned in the flood

Pack your bags for the flight to sleep in the dirt
The time to rest has come, you've put in your work
Harsh words and frustration don't mean a thing now
You've given years of blood and sweat, let the soil have your crown.......
