Given Up

The thirst for the whimsical water 

Lessens to vapor in the air

From the dam of the eyes, the tears burst

And we watch it happen with no care 

The surrounding grows hot 

With every Fahrenheit 

While our hearts grow cold

With every pale, drained, crimson painted

Body dead In the night 

The fire screams in anger and roars 

And the forest welcomes it home 

The blood boils 

At the thought of suffering alone 

We watch the screen 

And gasp and say 

"Damn this world!" 

And how it has turned grey 

But irony appears to pop up 

That we took the Colors out 

Sapphire blue and emerald green

And gave the canvas its image to be 

So while we pray 

Striving for green pieces of paper 

The truth is here to stay 

And to hide, we kill our neighbors 

We are impatiently waiting

For someone to save us

But even they above 

Have given up

Even they above have given up
