Birds
people like to shit on birds
lashing out with hurting words
but birds, they shit on people too
dropping bombs out of the blue
drifting slowly through the sky
permanently in a high
touching heaven, where's the sin
light it up with gasolin
far from danger, no real threat
the rain of blood that makes you wet
spread yourself, chicken flight
bringer of unending night
wings that fly, lets them soar
leaving earth forevermore
fields of children, drowned in tar
one big shroom to end the war
far from danger, no real threat
the rain of blood that makes you wet
spread yourself, chicken flight
bringer of unending night
far from danger, no real threat
the rain of blood that makes you wet
spread yourself, chicken flight
bringer of unending night
Dream Snatchers
the day I learnt about the bomb
a ripple in the plastic sea
a tower on a field of rooks
that could distort reality
my mother took me to the shrine
to glance upon the sacred metal
within the sheltered concrete cave
a garden full of poison petals
the dream snatchers
have come for me
they want to take
my liberty
the howling of a distant scream
a spreading silence filled with tension
slipping through the growing cracks
a peace without renewed extension
the dust that took my brother's lungs
the smatter of the scorching rain
I peeked out from my hiding spot
the city, now a sea of flames
the dream snatchers
they will survive
they left us here
to burn alive
we struggled to confront the weight
of everything that's come to pass
remembering the better days
without this choking toxic gas
the crops that perished on the fields
the sun that ripped with burning claws
this frightful power that we wielded
left us blind to our own flaws
dream snatchers
what can we do
when noone's left
but just us two
the dream snatchers
are we the same
to close our eyes
and shift the blame
