This was written as I watched the news coverage of the L.A. riots in response to the verdict letting the cops that beat Rodney King to near death off the hook.

The Verdict
The smell of the smoke
The roar of thre flames
The nights brnin' like hell
It's like it's all gone insane
It's like this whole city
Is just writhin' in pain

Chorus:
And the nite wind
It just moans
Let it burn
The Verdicts' been returned

The howl of the wounded
The silence of the lost
The governments watchin'
Wonderin' how much it will cost
But you can't lose nothing
When it's already lost

Chorus:

The shattering glass
The flash of the gun
The long nights of madness
Have finally begun
Just hope they don't burn it all
Before this night is done

Chorus
