Eclipse

I have seen good men broken,
I have seen old men cry,
I have heard a mother’s tortured lament
As she watched her children die

I have seen the hot sun rise and fall
On a world divided by countries
And now I struggle to survive
In a space that has no boundaries

How long have I been traveling here?
How long has time left me standing?
Alone I wander, past thousands of nights
Alone I wander, not understanding...

If man’s inhumanity to man, ends in WAR,
It seems to me,
In a moment of Truth
We ran from responsibility

I have seen the fall of the highest Citadel
I‘ve felt the Earth shudder under my feet,
Still the children look to me for God
Still the children need to eat...
