I hear their poisonous words again As they call out for submission and code "To be less than one and drown equals pride" they say These were the voices that destroyed us
Did I want for this loss to be sustained?
Through the clipping of wings found the secret paths From the blinding light of lies obtained second sight Stabbed in the back, gained strength in One-ness Taken from me, I learned to preserve
These were the voices that sunk our ships These are the voices - poisoned ears bleeding
Did I pray for the dead to be kept awake? Did I gently place these thorns through the surface of my eyes? Did I ask for this fathomless tragedy to go on forever?
Fail to comply - reborn in war The answer being no
