You want a story of hope?
Of innovation?
Are you tone deaf to what’s happening in this nation
Are you completely unaware of the situation?
Twenty-six years ago we were all minding our own business
Terrorism and war a distant thought
But how quickly we’ve forgot
Life teetering on a knife's edge
Liars all
Going back on their pledge
Putting our oath to the test
Time to rest
Before you have to dawn your vest
Fear gripping the aware
While the zombies stare into the light
Moths drawn to a flame
Always looking for someone to blame for their woes
Filled with despair
Hoping for a better tomorrow
