The Worst

This land is cursed

We've dealt the worst

Each one rehearsed

Before our birth.

We've Swelled a thirst

soaked through the earth 

with our blood. So many lives 

lost throughout the mud.

You can keep your mind

your eyes shut but 

mother nature knows to much

Shes been through enough

Lost so many sons 

Fathers, daughters

You've caught her at her worst

Shes gone through all the cursed

What could possibly be worse

She gone through all of yours

Shes gone through it all

Seen so many men fall

You hear her desperately call

Or are you numb to it all

She's gone through so much

Her children so out of touch

Dont kill them. fill them with love

Release them from there clutch

Reteach them. Enough is enough

She has lost to many sons. 

Fathers and daughters

Tranquil these monsters 

You've caught her

You've caught her at her worst

She's gone through all the cursed

What could possibly be worse

Shes gone through all of yours

Each one rehearsed before our

Birth. Its not the first. Wont be our last. 

Lets prey it becomes only our past
