When Man Wakes Up

When Man Wakes Up

 

When hope isn’t enough

And love falls on deaf ears

Common sense not so common

When bad dreams wake with tears

 

When world leaders

Push each others buttons

To the brink of war

When evil gorges on two gluttons

 

When birds don’t know

Which way to fly

All the flocks of feather

When they all seem to cry

 

When paws running scared

Can’t hide anymore

Where can they go

When the fire burns shore to shore

 

When whales lose their way

The ocean currents run amok

Polar Caps melted and gone

When the sea is out of luck

 

When the trees bare no leaves

From years of air pollutions

And man dropped the ball

When failed to act on solutions

 

When the sky turns angry

And the Earth changes mood

No matter what the season

When the clouds come unglued

 

When the ground bleeds

All around the globe

A sad day it’ll be

When the Earth decides to disrobe

 

When suddenly the sun shines

Through the window it streams

The look of pure horror

When man wakes up from his bad dreams
