History lives

Page blank in hand
Write last words
Hurt inside
Pride leads
To reach
Feed the
Head

Both just
As dead

Sun breaks at dawn
We are a place
Not of race
Comes it the call
Love falls
Time binds
Oh heart
Its
Mine

Takes a lot of pain
Watch them come
Coffin lead
Some
Run

Angels grace
Hard to see
Fate
Escapes
Leaders
Fall

Two heads
One call
Faith
Steals
Blood
Heals

I watch
In hope
See the
Lie

All is well
Some tell
In state
Hate

Hang high
Just die
Just die

Tyrant of life
Cuts like a knife
All die

I walk in slumber here
Wonder about fear
How can this be
In the land set by toil

Blood stained soil
Makes its mark
Bleeding hearts
Reap what you sow

Fields of oil
Fields of corn
Just depends
Where born

Takes a lot of pain
Watch them come
Coffin lead
Some
Run

On knees I pray
For all
One call
We all
Fall

Clouds gray
With life
We pay

Good to bad
Judgment
staid
