We are America,
Big and broad and vast,
A plot of land,
An outstretched hand,
But what shadow do we cast?
Our past erupts in smoke and flames.
Our ignorance is loyal
To the roots that run beneath our feet
And solutions for which we don't toil.
Our world is screaming for our help,
Yet watch as we walk away.
We close our eyes,
Turn off the light,
And in tomorrow, conceal the turmoil of today.
