Carlos Guerrero

The northern sky cries with tears of fire
Incinerating stoic apathies in a blaze
Towards perdition
Painfully futile to say this could have been stopped
Deserving, we pay the price in full
Our conflagration is here
Consuming everything we ever knew
Never thinking it could happen here
Cry wolf
No one will ever hear you out
Turn the tables
Our screams are not in vain
This too will pass
We will not be afraid
The fear we’ve left behind
Together we will fight
Make this come to pass
We are fearless
And when the final hour is here
We will stand determined
But disregard a repeating past
Indifferent and blind
Wait for the end to come
Enter your demise

We’ve reached the point of no return
It’s now or never
This may be the only chance we get
Leave behind provincial thoughts and mindlessness
How can we know until we’ve really moved on?
The road to home won’t always be the same one
On this never ending journey
Lost in a mire of rhetoric and nostalgia
Fabricate the self-image, which won’t belong
Just give it all
Keep holding on
In the struggle for tomorrow
And if tomorrow never comes at least we have lived for today
Lived with no regrets
What can be expected from such long trajectory?
Gradually detached with every new day
Identity blurred, the side effects of a melting pot
Complete rejection, self-rejection
Every step
Moving Forward
Never looking back

Each victory yields a new challenge
These actions become obsolete with very passing minute
The direction to reach some piece of mind
Grasping for some sort of stability in a world of derivatives
Or surrender to its fatal mark
You can never go back again (Derivatives)
So take your stance
Go hard or go home
These days make your life
Embrace what you have before it’s all gone
