Behold, my love:
come here and see
the strength of man's brutality.
Come see the blood, the pain, the tears;
come hear the laughing, mocking jeers.
Come see the weak take their abuse;
see justice fitted for a noose.
See children beaten, mothers raped;
see horrors that can't be escaped.
Take my hand, and I'll show you
exactly what our race can do:
I'll show you horrors, nightmares, frights;
I'll show you endless desperate plights.
Just take my hand, love,
come and see:
man's endless, vast brutality.
