advance

traverse through the city
gather what you need
follow closely to my lead

burning down societies remains
leftovers of industry
the glow attracts the flame

sidewalks adorn with memories
buildings whistle screams
open doors to empty dreams

fight to continue
breathe a few more hours
hope the light comes another day

lost souls sink
below concrete and ash
brittle bones buried

strength in numbers
cut off to divide
weakness multiplies

seek the comfort of tomorrow
while you struggle for today
just remember who you were
yesterday
