I will look after you...I died so many years ago it's the least I can do...

I've been having violent dreams
Filled with deafening echos of stabbing, choking, crying, and screaming
And after so many nights I've seen
Headless bodies that bob and buoy in glistening pomegranate streams

Because I never ran or screamed or brought upheaval in the name of humanity's well-being
I became part of the sheep, a participant in ethnic cleansing
Years went by and the blood started to dry
Like someone stumbled in and simply decided that the music had been turned up too high

Now under bushes and cars my honor cowers and shies
Weighed down by the iron weight of a nation that force-fed us shame and lies
Yet still awaiting you and me is yet another army to annihilate this Kingdom of God
This used to be, but is no longer, heaven, but a paradise too far gone
