A. K. A. F. A. D. Series V: Paradise Lost
Here & now... We are, we are, we never stop We are, we are, we never stop You do not need to hold up a sign: Homeless Vet! To get the picture, be all you can be, See, it's not just a job, it's an adventure, Venture towards the torrent sea of white crosses, Losses come & go daily, weekly, monthly, Yearly, we pay respect to those who have gone to Hell, Farewell, they never comeback, Payback is a harsh reality, Manifest told me, Destiny told me, When do the eyes see, Turn the key, Door opens, door closes, what happens now is anyone's guess, This mess, this quest of ours to be selfish, We got our wish, except the cost is a growing list, Here & there.. We are, we are, we never stop We are, we are, we never stop You want to aim high, call it chronic, Logic, you do not have a clue, do you, Let me take you to a place called: Paradise Lost Where everything has a price, at what the cost, This lost city has skyscrapers, only downward spirals, Denial of the truth, penal code of conduct, Products here are great & small, No walls, no chambers or glorious cathedrals The few, the proud, in the between, everyone is welcome here, Fear, what is fear, it dwells here & there...everywhere, Care to join us, former watchers called angels or devils...take your pick, Quick to judge, for we are the damnnation, League of nations far & wide, Which side do you come from: The good, the bad, & the ugly Here, now & there... We are, we are, we never stop We are, we are, we never stop What's the difference, There is no worldly conference, We do not care, unless you're willing to share, All is fair in love & war, When one door closes, another door opens, Broken souls come here to call it, home, Chrome stars to enlisted stripes bear nothing of importance, Quintessence has long gone from this place, Displace by the actions of the model elites, Defeats the whole concept of our Constitution, Destination of an unknown origin, Foreign or domestic: Protect, Defend, Save Grave understanding we take for granted, Wanted: Memento Mori (Remember you must die) We are, we are, we never stop We are, we are, we never stop © 2024 Glen Yumang Manese |
