Sorrowful trees,
Sallow and Yew...

From an unforgiving sky one day,
The choking dust blew on its way...

It's the simple things in life,
That make the world go round...

I can be the first.
I can be the last...

The last leaf on the tree,
Is the strongest of them all...

Someone special,
That's who you are...

The devil mocked,
You won't survive the storm...

Hidden deep in the woodlands,
Near where a river flows...

The shouts of children playing,
Bring back my happy youth...

Love stole all my diamond dreams,
And threw them back at me...

This is no fantasy,
No children's story...

This is no holy war nor jihad,
No fight for what's deemed right...
