Premonitions forebode

on these desert roads

Will another landmine explode?

Do I foresee,

An I.E.D.

And burns of the third degree?

Just another day

in this neverending fray

As daylight burns away

Drones race, across the open skies

Blood must be spilled when the bullets fly (2x)

Pray to your gods

Summon your masters

To save yourself

in the hereafter

Pray to your gods

Summon your masters

To save yourself

in the hereafter

Guerrilla confrontation

shells of fragmentation

needing no translation

Desolate land

Shifting sands

Hidden in their thousands

Nomadic domain

in this arid terrain

Yet the insurgency remains

Enemies within the populace

Faceless, remain anonymous (2x)

Staring into the desert night

as another mine ignites

No condemnation

from the population

Is it guilt by association?

The conflict extends

as it descends

Into a war that never ends
