Emptied Cities and Lives


With every modern war of mankind, the victims are forced to flee
An efficient, technological culture is performing mutual homicide
Steel bombs know no distinction, between the innocent, or the guilty
Biological terrorists, weapons of mass destruction, lead us to collide
Indiscriminate attacks empty cities that once thrived with activity
The human hive collapsed when missiles attacked and they replied
Leaving barren dead landscapes, emptied homes, and radioactivity
We fancy our world as modern, our civilization as great
But we have failed and threaten to lose everything
Once the last walls of hope fall and crumble


“We can’t go on much longer morally. We can’t go on much longer scientifically. The 
technology that was supposed to save us is ready to destroy us. New weapons are being 
made all the time, including chemical and biological weapons."  Billy Graham
