With every breaking dawn

We scar the earth

In a blind mindless way

We feed our growing pain

Disinclined to see

In our cores diseased

We carry the plague

With every passing day

More beauty we erase

The groves, the glades

Our world we devastate

Disinclined to see

That springs will fail

That colours will fade

And the shadows shout

A nightmare scream

In the black desert

In every restless dream

In the clouding distance

The paper doves fly

Someone declares

The end of time

In the clouding distance

Black fumes arise

In fear decayed souls collide

And the shadows shout

A nightmare scream

In every wasteland

Within you, within me
