Ashamed

The thunder it calls
Us away into dreams
And the tears, they fall
From the cradle to the sea
No, I won't, be afraid.

The ground, it lies
And cries out for relief
New hopes sprout and die
And the dust, it chokes belief
No, I won't, be afraid.

What was that you said?
As we hide our face from shame
The world on our head
Has fallen, we hide our names
We cannot get up.

The sky is coming down
In a starburst swansong
The clouds obscure the sky
But it won't be very long.
No, I won't, be afraid.
