Next Dawn

Days count by click
From the dawn to the dusk
With the golden sky afar
Shaded rays filtering
Through the foliage and clouds
Of muted cries and grieving silence

From the dawn to the dusk
With darkness engulfing the globe
The next dawn such a nightmare
With intrigues and mechanizations
Of the hideous schemes

With the golden sky afar
Sleepless night of ghostly dreams
With silence so scary and terrifying
Giants fusing and embracing
What of the next dawn

Shaded rays filtering
With history such a tyranny
Wounds to be licked like salt
With the golden dusk just a reminder
Next dawn, next dawn coming!
Through the foliage and clouds
Of the earth that bleed with blade
Of the star wars to fight the aliens
With the world left with pain
Next dawn such a nightmare

Muted cries and grieving silence
Of the midnight fever and anguish
As times flies over
Next dawn I hate you
Next dawn I curse you
The morning sunrise a mourning
Not a blessing of the sun shine!
