Out in the open,
No place to crawl,
Exposed to the light,
Hear the ravens call,

Days of wonder draw to a close,
Holding my face skyward,
Praying for hope,
It has been centuries since anyone spoke,

CD recordings of death pretend,
Movie magic -- now I am afraid,
The horror starts,
Now comes the end,

Birds falling from heaven,
Floods down under,
Flooding on a grand scale,
I quake before it's thunder,

My cries are swallowed,
There is no aide,
Sripped of all title,
All sins must now be paid,

Stand against the assault,
Rage against the pain,
Never surrender,
God will give life again....
World events make for interesting thoughts.

This part flows lovely if I may say so!

"Sripped of all title" you must mean 'Stripped'

"Stand against the assault,

Never surrender,
God will give life again.... "

Like how it goes, but I do think it rhymes a bit.. badly.. When reading it, it automatically rhymes with 'pain' and therefore you get a, to me, ugly way of saying 'again'. The 'ai' sound as in game (and pain xD) Instead of rhyming it with the 'en' sound of 'then'.

But I have no idea what sort of accent you have. So maybe that is how you pronounce it ^^; :)
