Debris

By HeadpatSlut





AMONG A WASTED FIELD OF ROT AND ANGUISH-
A MASS OF BODIES, MY BRAVE COMRADES ARE VANQUISHED-
LUNGS CONSTRICTED, CHOKING ON THE ASH-
STEEL RAINS, SHREDDING UP THE FABRICATED PAST-
COUNTING DOWN A DEATH CLOCK, EVERY SECOND UNTIL REVENGE-
BEHOLD OUR HOUR OF REPRISAL, I'VE BEEN PUSHED OVER THE EDGE-

BEYOND THE GRAVE PLOT RISING UP FROM THE ROT-
UPON A BENDED KNEE THESE PREACHERS PRAYING TO BE DELIVERED-
SUPPLCATIONS NEVER HEARD, TOSS THEM INTO THE FLAMING RIVER-
YOU THOUGHT YOUR WAR WAS JUSTIFIED?
YOU CAN NEVER UNDERSTAND THE PAIN WE FEEL-
ALL YOU CAN DO IS HOPE THAT YOU SURVIVE-
I'M TURNING YOUR WORLD INTO A BATTLEFIELD-

A BATTLEFIELD JUST LIKE THE ONE WE KNEW-
WHEN THE SKY COLLAPSED AND OUR BLOOD TURNED BLUE-

I'D LIKE THE KNOW WHAT FLEW THROUGH YOUR MIND-
WHEN YOU DEFILED OUR HUMAN RIGHTS?
KILL US FOR OUR OWN BELIEFS-
INSIDE THE STORM THE WRATH AND VENGEANCE COLLIDE!

    well it reads fairly easily. I don't know if I can put this to music though. still, lyric writing is so technical; and a challenge. It appears well done, although you missed the "L" on lungs in the beginning
