The thirst shall never come again to this
Life quenched with shattered blood in tune
With thoughts so tense with passive desire
Temptations to freeze in flaming fire

Which shall suffice? Fire or Ice?
Now pondered by many beings in recession
Swish, swish, the whirling wind in meter
So free and wild like a cold-hearted cheater  

Mother of freedom must be rigid and decaying
Since today only money can let one thrive
Love spread thin like cool evaporating water
Peace is real, yet on Earth it is slaughtered

Hell raging fiercely even in quiet silence
Sweat on backs and brow dripping now
Taste the salty sickness spilling from the stress
Try to enjoy the rest without all the transgress
