|
Near the gateway to |
|
MojaveI saw a place |
|
Both beautiful and blistering |
|
And cruel and cold the same |
|
The sun was like a lion |
|
Bearing down upon its prey |
|
Death valley stained in crimson |
|
For the moon to wash away |
|
And I envisioned rows of gallows |
|
For the world to look upon |
|
One step too bringing order |
|
To a planet tempting chaos |
|
Can you feel it coming down |
|
The righteous wrath of |
|
God?Revealed from out of heaven |
|
For the innocent blood crying from the ground |
|
While the wicked seem to prosper |
|
And glory in these days |
|
As if their ways were hidden |
|
As if they had escaped |
|
We have lost our sense of justice |
|
Smearing lines of right and wrong |
|
Despising any standards |
|
We blindly stumble on |
|
Bleeding hearts may scream compassion |
|
What of those that cannot cry |
|
A life is worth a life |
|
Justice, merciful and blind |
|
Innocent blood |
|
Is crying from the ground |
|
It's coming down |
