Morphean Shroud

This world has become so tired and weary
With darkened skies it is so dreary
The light of hope is dim these days
And weakens with everything he says

One by one all the things we loved
Are cast aside, first pushed then shoved
Opposition is weak and divided at hand
As they say divided we fall, United we stand

Those with power that wield it so brash
They will not stop until they crash
Yet those who have power they don't realise
They have plugged their ears and closed their eyes

We are driven apart by our actions
Into hostile tribes in warring factions
As darkness deepens those of us will scream
Whilst others drift off into a dream

Two worlds emerge one real one in slumber
People will die in an untold number
Until alarm bells finally ring too loud
And the dreamers lose their Morphean shroud

They'll see what they did when it's too late
They'll walk in a world still filled with hate
Focused squarely on them for what they did
When the world screamed for help the run and hid

Guilt will grip some who were naive
Who heard his lies and did believe
Whilst others will stand without any shame
And laugh as if, it was all a game

Choose on which side of history you stand
Keep your eyes open and your head above sand
See the results of your actions unfold
Do not wait until you grow old

See the crops that which you have sowed
And the damages caused to our ethereal road
You can still cut them down before it's too late
If you refuse to let him stand and dictate
