Prime

I found a piece of metal in the sand
It must have been washed up on this land
It seems to have come from an ancient time
From a place before - before it's prime

Maybe there was life?
And maybe there was eloquence
However, cut out by the knife
Buried words from sentences

Prime
On a backbeat of time
Lack of confidence
Before its prime
This race had to climb
The sky highest mountain

It says Kalashnikov, written on it
Maybe some kind of creature won it
It's got the shape of a burden to bear
Can't figure it out, how to use it

Maybe there was life?
And maybe there was eloquence
However, cut out by the knife

Another day goes by
As we die
We will stay below the ground
Not to be found (we will stay)
The silence of our kind
Our collective mind
We never reached our prime
