Forest Fanfare

Creepers
Clashing swords spark
Streaks of lightning
Heavens mourn for this
War we're fighting
Drawing blood, taking
Lives of the innocents
How can we prove to this world
Our innocence?
Drops of dew roll off
Blades of green
As we flick
As we slash
Through the thickets unseen
In the dark, We will creep
Guilty lives, We will seek
Spare some thought
For our souls
Growing old, growing cold
See us shrivel
See us rot
As we entangle in ourselves
Tryin'a reach for the sun
She's the heavenly one
But we can't
Were we sinners in our past lives before?
We will reap, what we sow
We're unable to grow
Grow to reach
Grow to touch
Any warmth
From our precious
Ancestor
Above.

On our own
And we will always be a restriction
Even to the ones we love
Alas,
On our own
We could bring nothing but pain
We're a shame
To our kind
Yet we can never find
Better ways to survive
Stay ahead
Stay alive
Gotta keep up our drive
They will see
Where our hearts
Get their strife!

Trees
Why should we listen
To those that strangle us,
That torture us,
Take food from us
and grip us tight
This time, its War!
We'll use our might,
Our strength, our height
To break them creepers
We'll be their soul reapers
For the last time
They'll draw their breath from us
We're in charge
Let us march
To our victory ahead!
See the lights
Shine on no plant
But those of our stead
Indeed we are a stride
Not to beat
We are one,
One combined
Makes us stronger
With our minds
In unison of thought
Bent on one final goal
To claim back the souls
Of the ones
We have lost
To those creepers,
Lives they have cost.

Flowers
In between,
Where to stand?
To which side
Should we bend?
All this fighting,
All this war,
All because of a flaw
In understanding other's needs
When we grew from our seeds
Didn't know it would lead
Eventually to commotion
As our lifestyles clashed
Now, hear the thunder crash
Upon Earth, reprimanding
What are we thinking?
We're always so demanding
Look at us,
We are fair
With our colours
Drawing stares,
And our sugar lips
Sweet, we're a treat
To the insects we meet
Yet still caught
In between
Need to choose
Like we're held
By a noose
Either way
We, innocents will stand to
Lose.

End.
Save us all
Save us please
For our nature
Makes us fight
We cant change
We cant cease
We're just trying to survive
Help us learn
Help us see
We can live
We can be
Strong as one
Before this war
Steals our mothers
Fathers, daughters and sons
Let us see the truth in living
Together, we'll keep on believing.
