IV. Deaths of Despair

Part IV - Deaths of despair: Deaths of despair Leave behind surrendered minds Swimming in anguish We mourn for a past Green and warm As the sea rises to embrace its progeny It was once our home Cold Deep And dark Perhaps it is a calling Leading us back To the depths A homecoming Crashing Seeping Inundating It is a symphony Bellowing with the screams Of festering voices Drowning lives Mother will break this era Mother will end the cycle It was once our home Cold Deep And dark Perhaps it is a calling Leading us back A homecoming Crashing Inundating Wasting away shores And your meaningless borders Drowning lives It's a symphony Bellowing with the screams Of festering voices Mother will break this era Mother will eat its young Mother will end the cycle Deaths of despair Break the cycle End the era Drowning lives Deaths of despair Break the cycle End the era Hearts racing Pumping from exhaustion Lips blue with yearning for better days Gaping mouths swallow in full as they sink Tears dissolve in the salty mix Winds blow with circular rage and leveling promise Waves wash away the screams Deaf to their prayers Bringing death to their heirs Watch as the waves wash away their screams Deaf to their prayers Bodies pile as they sink below A feeding frenzy for the sentient Philosophical queries will dissolve A puzzle for them that will evolve Life nourishing the new minds As a new cycle begins Flesh for flesh Watch as the waves wash away their screams Deaf to their prayers
