the giant rises from a rusty sleep

smoke in the mountains form columns so deep

the giant is raging across burned world and wide

the few still left scurry into the caves and hide

reptile armies buzz to hunt pillage and kill

insanity now rules until rear has its fill

what happened to peace prosperity and wealth?

society got sick and neglected its health

hate became common as did murder of the soul

blackened minds rotted the good life I’m told

now a wasteland dirty and burnt

one day a civilization next day we we weren’t

hope was abandoned and we took the wrong path

seeds of destruction reaped such horrid wrath

how could we have been so stupid and insane?

giving away control of heart soul and brain?

the sun is setting and then comes the end

quarter to midnight just round the bend
