Where the Busses Go

pressure every mother
time will shout your glory
clutching pearls of peace

listen to the bands play
symphonies of sorrow
walk upon the water

let's go hand in hand
Pericles has fallen

winds have brought the change
particles of pain

somewhere joyous soldiers
screaming through the veil

stumps begin to crumble
lean into the plow

colors fade to darkness 
sieze the view from jungfrau

paupers in the streets 
have left their dreams behind 

awake from sleep forboden
echoes laughter silence 

cling to love arising 
prayer the only answer
