In a world blood staining,
life souls hurt paining.
Moving on lifes game board,
feelings flesh paranoid.
Not knowing destinies,
minds flash extremeties.


Captured in a world of horror,
some fear lifes terror.
Others participate inflicting,
push bottons toward conflicting.
Caught up in disaster swirling,
others lives go spiraling.


Destinies caught in checkmate,
no solutions after checkfate.
Dearly departed souls go under,
tanks roll over like thunder.
Soldiers fight and die,
children run and cry.
