She stood before me
Hair pulsing as though
The skies wereon fire
Eyes rhythmically dancing
To tunes unheard before
And a dream swilred through
Her mighty frame
So I took courage in the dream
I lost faith in the lies
I breathed demons into dust
I broke bread upon the ground
Then upon the ground she cried
Broken
Twisted
Useless thing
And all was lost

Should all that has gone before
Be not wasted on the dream
Or be not breathed upon the lies
These are the things I have seen and
These are the things she has cried
An element of her beauty and
Awesome things implied
These are the things I have seen and
These are the things she has cried

A bird on the wing leaving no trace
The whirling wind in its wake
The shimmering white sands
A shining seascape
This she has planned and this she
Will take to be free

Let all that has gone before
Be not parted like the waters
Or be not transformed into wine
All this we have started and
Through this she shines
A testament to her grace and
Lesser things defiled
These are the things I have seen and these
Are the things she has cried

The end we pray for is now close at hand
As we pour concrete across the land
We have broken her back
We have taken her pride
We have fenced her in and
We have kept her inside
She has tried to defend against our attacks
But what we have taken
She cannot put back
Should all that is coming be not denied
This I will hear and
Soon she will fly
AWAY
