"Skies So Dead and Gray"

Find the midnight
For a dark horse knows no light

He who is born tomorrow
Will inherit all this sorrow

Don’t escape the womb
It’ll be your safest tomb

Life lives slow but dies so fast
The stone that kills is the first one cast
The perfect scene of beauty is suddenly worn
The virgin landscape is battered and torn

Enemies reach a truce
When one tightens up the noose

It’s tough to live today
With skies so dead and gray
