Broken wings of a sparrow mark the dawn
The age of man seems endless, but it’s not
The birds they know, they see it, see us all
Fail by our own hand, can we stall
We gaze to the sun
Without virtue we killed the only one
We erased our sun
Oh God - what have we done?
There’s nothing left to save us from the haze
What was bright now ashes on the plain
Fire’s breath consumes the tears of the rain
Only darkness shrouds our numbered days
(Only darkness shrouds our numbered days)
Started with trees and ended with a saw
Impartial pleas never aided at all
The birds from sea to sea knew all along
