Slouching Towards Bethlehem |
Turned and tossed in this widening flight |
And I can’t find my bearings |
The voice that called me once is lost |
And the silence left is tearing at me |
Everything’s starting to fall apart |
The center cannot hold |
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed upon us |
And innocence is drowning |
All around the best of men are lacking in conviction |
While the wicked and the worst are full of passion and intent |
All we have is falling apart |
The center cannot hold |
The blood-dimmed tide has covered us |
And the innocent are drowning |
Surely there’s some revelation coming close at hand — a second coming |
I can barely mouth the words before the images assault me |
Somewhere in the desert, a monstrous affront turns its pitiless gaze to me |
Its blinding stare is like the sun |
I turn my eyes and fight to shake it but it’s frozen in my mind |
The darkness drops again, but now I know |
Twenty centuries of sleep have been shaken to a nightmare |
What rough beast, its hour come ‘round at last |
Slouches towards Bethlehem, waiting to be born? |
All we have has fallen apart |
The center could not hold |
The blood-dimmed tide was loosed |
And the innocent have drowned |
