Fetal Lament: Homesick - Scalpel, Nuclear Death

A mother’s nightmare — to lose her only child

A loss of life, an infant’s tragic death

A family torn apart with pain and sorrow

What it the child should return???

A mother’s nightmare — to see her child drown

She cries for her child’s life, my death

In her arms she holds my lifeless form

I open my eyes and cry…

A mother’s nightmare — to watch her child burn

The burning smell of cooking flesh

I’m charred beyond death itself

Then I sit up and scream…

Dead babies ferment in a field of flowers

Overgrown with weeds and disease

Dead babies rot in a field of flowers

Turning black in their own blood…

Dead babies dead under a sky so black

Bleeding eternally

Dead babies dead in a field so black

But what it they should live???
