Stay Of Execution

Faust Again

Fate ain't shrouded in mystery
 No revelations need to be seen
 Aftermath of war and failure
 Mutilation sent us sprawling
 Fellow man still on his knees
 An event that staggered the world
 Distress that we are all drenched in

 Our wails won't reach his ear
 Abandoned as a piece of litter

 We consume with joyous abandon
 Not even able to see ...
 Our hearts beyond reproach
 We yearn to talk and prick up ours ears
 But celebrate the flash and remain deaf
 Ought to desist from such foolish negation

 Without any compunction we drifted apart
 Desecrated our souls, defaced our bodies

 The God of vengeance will rise
 Making all lives equal to the ashes
 We will embrace this fate
 Without any sign of refusal

 Soon we become aware
 That's only stay of execution
