I saw the sun burst tears and cry Waning before the clock struck noon Shadows sweep the Earth like a dilapidated broom The moment we lit the skies Artificially Happier days, once here now gone As I watch the moon die with little dread Shot by the Earth—Blood red The moment we lit the skies Artificially birds fly high as the wind around them dies Inevitably falling from grace to judgement Redolent of the seventh plague God placed on Egypt The moment we lit the skies Artificially Like tongues of shackles past, the mountains moan As the trees dissonantly groan in misery Each and every one—falling continuously The moment we lit the skies Artificially Aroma of charred flesh consumes as fires swell Innocence shrills as cities goes up in flames A species so dominant, themselves they have tamed The moment we lit the skies Artificially Lost in the wilderness, a little girl weeps Searching for relief as clips melt from her hair Her mother lay in ash, her father no longer there The moment we lit the skies Artificially Angelic wings soared in hordes from middle hell Spirits illuminated in a green glow The outcome of fear where compassion is owed The moment we lit the skies Artificially Quiet is the world as all is sleep Devistation in green hue shows how history ends No tale of this event to be wrought by man's hands The moment we lit the skies Artificially Only time knows the nature of Day's break As night incinerates forever the light This the moment we tried to set things right The moment we lit the skies Artificially Artificially |
