Desperate Times
In the desperate times we reveal
The evolved darkness, that once was merely a seed
The hunger does not content
But demolishes the walls built of dreams
In the desperate times we reveal
The perpetuating light we carry indeed
The will, shielding the justice and the creed
We choose what we become
Good or bad, hero or villain
There is light in everyone
Some fight to save
Some fight to kill and persuade
But nothing is bigger than a life
Nothing precious than a beating heart
These are indeed the desperate times
Turning the dawns of humanity
And circling us in the devil’s trap
But this is not the end
We choose what we become.
