Last Tear To Fall

Rovers search for life on Mars Far from Stars and strife Whitewash the scars Play the anthem, Pay the ransom To some Cyber ninja phantom, Or the system trickles down to a crawl Like a house of cards way too tall Simpler time in my younger years In my prime without a fear Will we ever learn from the past at all The world gonna turn till last tear gonna fall Takes a village, for a world, to grow and thrive We the privileged, the weak and the marginalized Some would pillage, flames they would fan it Clear the brown haze over the planet Or wait for the savior to arrive. Or shoot a rocket, on a joy ride Grapes of wrath begin to ripen when Best laid plans of mice and men Or ride out the storm til the last tear gonna fall. And those who search for Justice never sleep Never grown accustomed to the belly of the beast When a hurricane rain crack your window pane Lose true north on your weathervane We throw some crumbs and a crust of bread Body and soul must be fed For silent tears we never shed. Sooner or later later gonna fall Is it our God that swings the wrecking ball? When the façade hides the cracks deep in the wall Some be sniffing out good trouble With the dogs among the rubble Search for life or sadly none at all In that number we shall be called And those tears of a crocodile May hide your fears for a little while It's a long way down for the last tear to fall I hope a safety net's big enough to catch them ALL Surely won't be the last tear to fall I hope there be Tears of Joy, be the last tear to fall
