A house divided in itself

Soldiers hiding in trenches of self,
What in the world have we come to be?
Hatred feeds off of desire for wealth
Is there no end to the beloved’s tyranny?

In despair the tears burn like fire
Hearts bombed in horrid explosion
Lonely, hopeless, trapped in barbed wire
Fearful of clicking of slightest emotion

Words are more deadly than knives
Deceitful lips cut deeper than steel
Merciless, shred the soul in lies
Severing any surviving desire to feel

Lips shooting curses paradoxically bless
Maybe it is love’s deepest irony:
Should it come from hands that caress
The wounds that are most deadly

A broken heart, a wound so fatal
Inflicted only by most unlikely enemy
Love is murdered in its very cradle
When hatred erupts within family

 
(Not fussy about the music, but the video is well worth watching until the very end)
