• and I delete myself
  
  

  The world is asleep with it's head in it's hands
  Unable to meet such desperate  demands
  Cries of frustration resound in it's head
  And strewn at it's feet are the souls of the dead
  

  Tearing the fractured divisions apart
  The tandem destruction of brothers in arms
  Crying for reason with none to be found
  Engulfed by the ominous, deafening sound
  

  Has it grown darker or am I slowly going blind?
  The day is fading, all our fates are intertwined
  Without the light of wisdom what else can be done
  But fumble blindly until at last our race is run?
  

  Events resonate long after they've occurred
  The lines between passion and reason have blurred
  Its hard to find balance on unsteady ground
  Instead we just pray that a way will be found
  

  Acting on impulse without any thought
  Ignoring the lessons our precursors taught
  Emotion dictates what our actions will be
  With no room for logic and little for peace
  

  Has it grown darker or am I slowly going blind?
  The day is fading, all our fates are intertwined
  Without the light of wisdom what else can be done
  But fumble blindly until at last our race is run?
  

  Shadows spread out like a river of ink
  Devouring the sky as the sun starts to sink
  Counting the hours till it rises again
  Instead of relying on light from within
  

  Permanent nightfall, a total eclipse
  Darkness takes hold with its sinewy grip
  We begged for this outcome and now it's arrived
  Cursing its name with our echoing cries
