None Shall Mourn

Centuries of blood bow your head and weep

What seeds have been sown in genocides heart

Soot and grime weigh down lives

Lived in fear under an empty sky

Boundless with out the lie of a god

Who put us on this earth to suffer

Never doubt that we are alone

The universe is cold and does not care

So live your life free and without guilt

There is no vengeful god for you to fear

If we are not enslaved to some figment of our minds

We gladly chain ourselves to some flag our great ideal

Such limitations bind constrict and crush the life away

We could have been so much instead

We chose to bow down and fail

Fade away where we belong

Nothing will change the world remains the same

Everything you dreamed

Would come instead a dream remains

And no more can we tolerate this structure

Forced upon us by another's fate

We will pass into the dark

And none shall mourn this unmarked grave

In shallow earth our achievements rot

With none but the stars as witness

On mute epitaph if only you could sing

What songs would you weave

Of all that could have been

What tragedy and glory sacrifice and salvation

None of this will come to pass

Now our race bows low with shame

All our works will be as dust
