The Tortured Soul of Man

In a dessert void of peace
In a place where man holds his ears
And
Ignores the screams around him
A world filled with the mournfilled wails
Of thousands who came before him
He shut out the rain from his crystal walls
Forcing his children
To drink his forgotten sorrows
He takes his time to distract
And fraud and sell
They sell their lightning
And shout their thunder
Hindering the growth
Of all his plants
And all his lovers
One day the stars will see
The tortured soul of man
As we corrupt Hades palace
And grind ourselves to sand
