Nothing Left To Say

here again, with nothing to say,
nothing in my heart,
a stranger in this strange land,
immigrant of circumstance.

cry out, oh lord, cry out!
part the clouds and send your fury,
for nothing remains
in the ashes of creation -
I set the flames to destroy your face,
your tears of sunshine
stir nothing in this blackness;
torrential rivers
will not move this stone;
your hot breath
will not dry the sweat from the land,
it will not cool the flames.

OH LORD!
CRY OUT!
I do not hear you anymore.
