Measure of consequence

Breaking
Your eyes seeking the dead
Amidst the day's hiding
Suffocating reason
The ground cries out
For the spirit broken
Erased by admiration
Justified as a sacrifice
The dead with retribution
Soon the blind to capture
A false chosen generation
Memories of sorrow
The souls of lamentation

Countless numbers of bodies
Raised from the lifetime
An end to families
Their heritage
Divide the lifeline
Twisted hands claw through
Seeds of scary timelines
A measure of consequence
Never again
Choking hate, the cycle
Never again
Denying their lives
Please help us uphold sight
Never again
See through those eyes

Take heart, oh Israel
For these stretched forth hands come to you
As offerings of hope
Here, here
