I tried to tell them

It was going to come

But what could we have done?

 

Standing here all alone

The fires have run wild

I know death is around the corner

look what has begun

 

All the earth has shrivelled up

I’m cooking in an oven

Dry, dull days, doom ahead

Look what we have done

 

New diseases every day

This tragedy we have summoned

All the cattle has disappeared

Look what we have done

 

My heart is beating so rapid

No water for six days now

Blurs drowning me in their clenches

Sweat, blood dripping down my face

 

I grip on no longer
