Lost Soul Of AmericaA Poem by Michael StevensWhat's happened, and how?![]() Lost Soul Of America
Verse:
Stranger's face reflected from our collective mirror, a new disregard of the things we used to hold dear Principals be damned, it's every man for themselves Greed and intolerance replace goodness in ourselves
Pre-Chorus:
And the bell, it tolls for thee, it tolls for the end of what we used to be
Verse:
Willing to overlook the sad and obvious flaws Questioning nothing; as crude takes over, humanity withdraws It's easy to blame others, but hard to put blame on us We watch as our society turn to ruin and rust
Repeat Pre-Chorus:
Chorus:
The lost soul of America, it happened in the blink of an eye Some of us stare disbelieving, and try to understand why? The lost soul of America lies bleeding; alone in the dark We watch the delusion madness tearing our country apart
Verse:
What changed overnight, what evil lurks in our souls, that we would tolerate, celebrate, I just don't know Our future will be cold and dark, if we continue down this road Our lives will be a disaster, as the nation explodes
Repeat Pre-Chorus:
Repeat Chorus:
END
