Hard Times

Here come the hard times

Here comes the return of the archons

The harkening of our death

Not the death of people

But the death of our nation

The death of the world as we know it

They want us to be scared

But this is not the time to show it

Now is the time to grow

Time to show

There are more of us than them

And we can overcome this terror again
