Are You Happy Now - evdog

So you thought that you could take over the nation,
Bring the beast to its knees, and win our adoration.
Take a good look around at our barren city.
Out of all of the lands, ours is to be pitied.
Had you not been her kin, I would understand it,
But you could have saved so much by being underhanded.
Take away just one life for the sake of many.
Just like that, you would reign. There was never any need for war.

Millions of us died because of you
We battled because you ordered us to.
So tell me, are you happy now?

Then on one normal day, just like any other
You declared civil war, sister against brother.
You called yourself rightful heir and called for mass retraction.
Either for or against, forcing us to faction.
Daily, I do my best to keep myself from crying
When left and right, all I see is everybody dying
Each new face on the ground tells a different story
Be it just to survive, or kill all for the glory or for peace.

This is worse than what we had before.
I don't call this place home anymore
I hope that we'll all get through this somehow.
But tell me, are you happy now?

Ignorant or evil, I don't know,
But either way there's nothing left to show
This battleground was once a happy land,
Harmonious, prosperous, peaceful and grand.
The leaders play with us like we're a game
And though we're different, we all fall the same,
With nothing left except a simple name
And one day I will just be one of them.
