The Human Theme
Dreams that are shattered
Break into shards
Hearts that are broken
Are arrow pierced
Words can fly like arrows
They head straight home
Through the blackened sky
Fly the things we should fear
In the human theme
What we do just causes more pain
But if you just look
Up to the sky
You would see that there is hope
There is light and it is shining down on us
We can make it if we try
But if we give up now
Then that is when our hearts quit trying
And that is when we die
The human fear that’s greatest
Is death in it self
But if you fear death
Why kill yourself
If you let your heart shutdown
This is what you’re doing
When you say no more
And now don’t care
That’s when you go suicidal
That’s when you cease to have
That thing that makes you human
That thing that gets you there
That thing is inside you
That show others that you are
This is the human theme
The way that we choose to be
The setting and place
Of what’s going on
On this Earth we say
That we are independent
But you were not made this way
You were made to lean on each other
The reoccurring theme on earth
Is to hate and to hurt
You may not see the flaming arrows
Yet they fly through our blackened sky
If you’re not carefully watching your every word
Any one of them could become the arrow that heads home today
They hit the heart at which they are aimed
With incredible force and speed
They do not stop when we start regretting
Instead they enter deeper
Just look skyward
A day that is bright were people are kind
Rather that than this world we have turned
We have turned from bright to dark
We have turned it from love to hate
And so here we are in a full out war
In this war there are but two sides
One is good and one is evil
Cliché I know
Yet this is how our world has been
For many many ages
We have fallen from the garden
To streets of hate and horror
We shoot words of evil towards each other
Careless of whom they may hit
And so this war rages on
No stopping it now
this is the human theme
the theme of war and fear
the theme of hate and pain
the fight for heaven
the fight for our king
he will stand beside us
sword in hand
swinging to win the hearts of his people
this is the fight
this is the one
this is where it is lost
or won
what else is there
if this is gone
