The Eagle

[Nowayout]

The eagle has a broken wing
As the bear continues rummaging
The red dragon fly's overhead singing

As the mighty fall in calamity
There is a vacuum that forms
Pushing all to the wall of insanity

The wall is crumbling asunder
Where do you stand
These lands now open to plunder

From above they could strike
Who could see this coming
In the middle of the night

Another day and another fight
I watch the plight of all nations
The quest now for wrong and right

A hot wind blows through the trees
This could be the storm
That brings us to our knees

I can see the ticking of time
Who is going to take the fall
Your guess as good as mine

Sorry for being
So grim
The division bells are ringing.

[Nowayout]

Ok enough is enough
Nobody owes me anything
Do I need all this stuff?

Love is all I need
It should be
I feel it deep in me

Turning the page
The ways of the world
And all that rage

I will not let it get to me
I will not stand idle
I will not scream at my neighbors

What's a bloody war good for?

There are better ways to be.

The great chain of being found

In the rocks
The flowers
The trees
The animals
The people
The nations

All resting in God.

Fail to see God in any link

It all falls apart.

So when you depart
Please don't slam the door.
