A Dead Nation

Above all desires, pondering


Over the nothingness that surrounds

Blocks all visions, hinders all sounds

Oblivion is nothing, but a dream

But we choose to live in ignorance

Change brings on an ugly nostalgia

Memories, wanting to be forgotten

The corpses lie in their graves, rotten

Holding on to beliefs, that show no light

Our greed has killed traces of insight

There’s only “me”, there is no “you”

And what grows old, loses its worth

Just as our values, our virtues did

Its only a dead nation, nothing more

Slaughtered by its hands, on its own.
