Song idea (If I post it here, maybe i'll be motivated to actually finish it)

In the broken heartland
the winters are quiet.
The fire is roaring
and she sits there by it.
The cities are bursting
with anger and riots.


The children drain out
like hourglass sand.
and everyone's working
as hard as they can.
Believing that surely
there's some kind of plan.


In the broken heartland
The winter's are quiet
the preachers are preaching
and everyone's buying it.
Something is wrong here
don't try to deny it.
