The Song of Destruction

Music you can die for.
Listen to me
Children and friends
And sway to the beat
Of the world's end.

The rockets boom
And bullets ring
It signals the doom
That war will bring.

Countries all clash
Vehicles crash
The world will explode
Just want you to know.

The leaders stand
All raise their hands
To give the commands
That start the bands.

The western lands blare
A sound of barrage
The missiles all flare
And fall from above.

The eastern lands struggle
Amongst themselves
The people all snuggle
The music swells.

Bullets still sing
Like trumpeters ring
Soldiers will scream
A musical dream.

I stand so still
By my urge to kill
The soldier's fulfill
The composer's will.
