Death and Healing

So much death
So much loss we're finding here In this lost and angry year
Oh our souls they are so tired

I know we've been living life out wrong
We've been selfish we've been cold
But the ones who hurt the most seem to be the least at fault
We know, we have known it all along
The cruelty within our souls
Treating this fragile world like we own it all
But now
Chorus
I know, when our ache is dissipated
We'll probably all go back
To the ugly ways that brought us here today
We know, we're just too afraid to say it
There's too much that we lack
For us to truly know how to change
I only know to say
Chorus
Father, Mother, Creator of us all
We are not strong you know our weakness
Hold us up though all we do is fall
And from this pain release us
Teach us how to heal from our pain
In a way that heals each other
Teach us love for all the creatures that you've made
And for our sisters and our brothers

For there's So much death
So much loss we're finding here
n these lost and angry years
Oh our souls they are so tired
So much death
When will it be time to heal?
Is it safe to dare to feel?
​ Or will we be swept away in another fire?
