Murder Hornets

Another day, another plague Murder hornets on their way Daily lies desensitize Incessant terror normalized All hope seems but a distant dream Drifting away with each deceit We've come to know a curse of old Only misery will be all we'll know Another year, a new host of fears To keep us fed as death draws near Preoccupied as we die Wildfires blot out the sky Clowns at the helm overwhelm Inundate, indoctrinate, buy and sell Told to forego all you know By those who thrive When your eyes are closed O, what could have been What could have been Has been and will be again So long to linear time Fate's not a straight line It was all inside my mind Murder hornets Swarming borders and seas Ever looming A new brewing disease All the figures' names change But the game stays the same The waves erase the faces How many lives lost How many lives Does one man's ego cost? Abyss yawning As the new day's dawning
