They say that in the east
the sun is setting
the skies are brooding
   and rain is falling
They say,
That we, who once were proud
   shall fall
They say,
  That our great empires
    Shall be ground down
Lost.

They know us as we are
As men, our nature dictates
  That we are our own end.
And like sand in the tides
  We shall be washed away
    Europe, the land of war
     of nationalism
Has singularly determined it's fate
  
It has denied the light
Turned it's eyes away
   And looks only upon itself

Preferring the comforts of Race
And pride
   Patriotism in it's extremes.

Not entirely sure. Slightly political I suppose.

I'm angry about the recent election of several extreme right parties throughout the EU (Including the BNP, pretty much the british Nazi party..........) The pure are those of us who still believe in freedom and equality.

I dont own or claim any rights to this image either.

So I live in the land of war and notionalism. : D

Patriotism in it's extremes. --a really good line.

And, I think elections aren't as scary as they seem to be when you first see the results. For my short life, three or four completely different parties have 'ruled' the country and I haven't seen any changes in my life. So, yeah, don't worry : D

Haha, Europe has a particularly bloody history.. but I suppose that the rest of the world does also. I live in Canada, not much has happened here.

I'm not too frightened about the election results, rather, I'm a little upset. I'm a bit of a leftist and the elections of Nationalist parties bother me, especially since the left is going into decline because of that.

All art is exorcism. I paint dreams and visions too; the dreams and visions of my time. Painting is the effort to produce order; order in yourself. There is much chaos in me, much chaos in our time.

yeah, but Canada is still the best country to live in in the world.

I don't like the Nationalists, they seem to consider people who are not from their country... well, NOT people : D
