Drought Lyrics


A field of burning heat

A sea of killer waves

A swamp of silent spreading plague

A storm of howling winds

A stream of refugees

A war of never ending pain

An atmosphere of dust

To breathe the air you must

The choking hazard's here to stay

A drought that kills the seed

What once was used to feed

Now we're reduced to pray

Slaughtered cattle

Withered crops

Nothing is left that can grow

Spoiled storage

Dried up well

Earth reduced to dust and cracks

A government neglect

A crumbling city hall

A tyrant with a suit and tie

Corrupted writing hands

Doors are closed to all

Silver fist will choose to reign

A rising tide against

A coup to throw the truce

What will come is what may

See the roundabout

In the human mind

The flood has swept away the peace

Scream to see the light of day

Scream for they are miles away

Scream to see the light of day

Scream or let the silence stay

Scream to see the light of day

Scream for they are miles away

Scream or let the silence stay

Scream before your heart turns to powder

A crow, black crow

Feasting on human flesh

A silent sound

The sound of silent death

A field of blackened ash

A skull and corpse to pass

Anything but life

A broken splintered raft

A last escaping path

A land of deadly waves

A pair of dark red eyes

Gods' sacrifice

Into the fray

The fast hare can't flee the fire

Devouring all in its way
