5 Years

Take a look around you as they rise and they fall
Whose are these little birds twisted in the sands?
The resonance of tyranny echoes in the rubble
People on their knees, just like you and me
I've been part of the annihilation

Lost
Five years of our youth
Drowning
Taking safety in this wasteland

We have seen them drowning, surrounded by the warfare
Drifting on the grey walls, invisible colours
The price is paid, but the innocence - no time to be alive
In this wilderness do they not grow?
Left in ruin and extermination

Don't turn away from us, poor man
Solace of humanity
There's no shelter

Lost
Five years of our youth
Drowning
Taking safety in this wasteland
