The Second Life
Between the debris
and the slaughter
lies a rose
when man is dust
and God forgotten
a new god will be born
and the characters
of our dreams
hieroglyphs
of some bygone age
A gas mask
and a tank of air
eyes fire in the gloom
Angel in stone
decay
a future art
and children
a new dawn
in
fallout...
and the slaughter
lies a rose
when man is dust
and God forgotten
a new god will be born
and the characters
of our dreams
hieroglyphs
of some bygone age
A gas mask
and a tank of air
eyes fire in the gloom
Angel in stone
decay
a future art
and children
a new dawn
in
fallout...
