CIVILIZATIONS FALL
Battles fought, wars are won
peace a forgotten dream
or still like a moon beam
broken by waves on an ocean
No more, late in the night
do things unknown go bump
or falling, awake, with a thump
like from out the sky a kite
When a civilization falls
and civilian government fails
storms of ages sweep in gales
and breaks down societal walls
A doom foreseen, inevitable
fated, unavoidable, destiny
night falls darker than ebony
a Rover's life is considered stable
Barbarians in the walled city
soldiers on the walls
as the city falls
leave their post, spare no pity
Terror stalks the streets
when shadows fall
and nightmares do call
from the jaws of victory, snatched defeats
The city elders corrupted
like kings with no honor
the country is a goner
for gates opened by those corrupted
by treachery from within
when good is thought a sin
