In Ashes We Lie
are we here to understand
or to survive
we are building mountains
the blueprints are being drawn
as breathless words
pour from these eyes
mounds lay like bodies in the morgue
side by side, in ashes we lie
are we here to understand
or to survive
smoke screens and bandages
cannot hide the icons in
architecture that stand as archives
of colossal structure
assembled to destruction
layer in degrees of grey scale coating
so travel broken rivers
across manufactured landscapes
and along the rebuilt
curve of the planet
as breathless words
pour from these eyes
or to survive
we are building mountains
the blueprints are being drawn
as breathless words
pour from these eyes
mounds lay like bodies in the morgue
side by side, in ashes we lie
are we here to understand
or to survive
smoke screens and bandages
cannot hide the icons in
architecture that stand as archives
of colossal structure
assembled to destruction
layer in degrees of grey scale coating
so travel broken rivers
across manufactured landscapes
and along the rebuilt
curve of the planet
as breathless words
pour from these eyes
