Their Future....Our Curse

Their Future....Our Curse

Hide the sun with a cloud
Dry the freshness from the showers
Cover my heart with a shroud
Dull the colour from the flowers

Turn sour tastes of sweet
Dull brightness from the rainbow
Silence the music, stifle the beat
Prove wrong all that I know

Confuse all the paths with a map
Breathe into the air only pollution
Drown all the seas opening a tap
Find only doubt, no solution

Flood open eyes with tears
Tame the beauty of the wild
Fill hopeful dreams with fears
Still the play of every child

Break the strength of every man
Bring chaos where there’s calm
Turn all liberties into a ban
Scare safety into harm

Drive the insane over the brink
Lose everyone that’s found
Break the chain from every link
Burst silence with corruptive sound

Close doors before they open
Finish a new day before it awakes
Turn all that is now into when?
Paint all that is genuine to fakes

Stop the heart from beating a life
Reward the rich with poverty
Plague disease on a surgeons knife
Shut the eyes on all that can see

Throw shivers of cold on everything hot
Hide discoveries with shame
Place a wreath over a babies cot
Try the innocent with blame

My curse on this ungrateful world
Will bring satisfaction to my smile
For as true human nature unfurled
Your deeds were always on trial
