PREMONITION

Civilization is like a thin layer of ice upon a deep ocean of chaos and darkness. Werner Herzog”

a forecast is bleak
animosity's spreading fast
circumstances are disturbing
the situation's unsurpassed
the future is held captive
by cruelty, greed and deceit
the more we consume
the more we compete

the bleeding won't stop
the cuts are too deep
this is what we sow
this is what we reap

vanity distorts
our sense of reality
the only view we see
is our peculiarity
our souls rejoice
in our hypocrisy
when we share the image
of our twisted charity

the bleeding won't stop
the cuts are too deep
this is what we sow
this is what we reap

a prophecy looms
signs are everywhere
payback time is imminent
there isn’t much time to prepare
the world’s crumbling down
our survival is at stake
we are now reaping
the fruits of our mistakes

the bleeding won't stop
the cuts are too deep
this is what we sow
this is what we reap
