"Watch your thoughts, they become words.
Watch your words, they become actions.
Watch your actions, they become habits.
Watch your habits, they become your character.
Watch your character, it becomes your destiny. "


I see you mercilessly lurk over the sand
Watching your poisonous refuge destroy our very plans
Creeping fathomless like an unknown disease
you speak of such misfortune making cracks in the lines that were once at peace
Stirring the very motion of nature
look I just watched you disintegrate that paper

As I watch your every move I only stand in wonder
the fires dance across the night sky in thunder
The toothy grin you gave is not known to be human
Heartless and uncanny there's no truth under that skin
Plaguing everything you touch even my family
Scurrying and running for safe haven because your oh so deadly

I saw them creep across the ocean to my land
leaving unrelentless gifts of death upon the sand
The smell of rotting flesh fills my nostrils
they fume because its become so hard to breath
Hiding behind the blades of grass
just leaving and let me escape the aftermath
I believe you've caused enough damage
your truth has now a once perfect image
The friendship you had once with us
this so ends our priceless trust
Looking out of the blades of grass
I see all the destruction because of you "Human Hands"
