A Thin Shell

Survival takes the mind to feed the hungers
Drinking the filth to persist in this hell
Starving hiding and fighting, the old ways
Just to see another pale sunrise burn

Foundations of peace were broken
How quickly the illusion of order faded
Survivors can watch it all wither to nothing
A world of death and cruelty was one step away

Strength in numbers only strength has meaning
Hierarchy's forming again like clockwork
The most brutal will become leaders
Killing for land and food to carve a space

Back into darkness show worth or perish
Forget the vision of what was the past
Erase all thoughts of any comfort
It was a short dream that could never last

Foundations of peace were broken
How quickly the illusion of order faded
Survivors can watch it all wither to nothing
A world of death and cruelty was one step away
