Life is but a sad dream

Death is but a mad nightmare

No life is as it may seem

Nothing can we bear

Spirits of death and hatred

Life of happiness and sadness

Light is a way they tread

They walk the path of darkness

I see no future

I see no harmony

They are not sure

What they know is true, in this world of somebody

I sleep

I wake

They weep

They take

What is this life?

What is this hope?

Dreams taken by false hope and the knife

While I take up the sword and fight for strength and hope

I don't see an end

To this light that won't bend

And this peace we know, why does it seem fake?

For all the power we take.

Is power good?

Is power bad?

Or are we taking up the sword for bloodshed on this wood?

And do we take up arms and kill to make others sad?

War is upon us

And those who've never felt pain

And while we fuss

Blood holds a scar on this stain

Is there hope?

Is there peace?

Is there a rope?

To save us from this of crying, and false peace?

This blood-red water of tears,

That once was pure

Is now tainted with fears,

And now they cry in this chain of sorrow, and not sure

About our future
