-----------------------------------------
When beasts of love forget their place,
they turn to lives of pure disgrace.
Forgotten values; in their place,
a lie to fool the human race.
Forgotten many years too long,
the beauty of their nature's song,
the knowledge of what's right and wrong,
and how they all should get along.
They fight themselves for greater stuff;
each other's breathing out they snuff;
they know not when enough's enough;
their lives they make unduly tough.
They spend their lives, themselves, alone
in castles made of steel and stone;
their hearts inside have empty grown;
the seeds of discontent they've sown.
Amid the hail of shinning lies,
the roaring din of tortured cries,
they seek the meaning they surmise
will free them from this cold demise.
The love for which they ever lust,
to get it they must learn to trust
because to get it, give they must
and risk betrayal's painful thrust.
The answer they don't understand
is spreading love throughout the land;
to live together hand in hand
and follow true their hearts command. |
