Earth Birth
Open the Gate's
And let the Lepers in
And pray the Conscious of the Survivors
Send the Rescue Boats back
Before the Screaming stop's
Free the Beggar from the Stocks
And ask the Baying Crowd show Mercy
Retract the Gallows and Burn the Rope
Fill your palm with a hand of dirt
And know the value of time on earth
