Pinned back the velvet dark. We paid our fee

The softness we never got

...I'm sorry

I know you may have never been told that

each step a bargain struck with pain.

A symphony of truth alone, 
Dictated, printed, beamed so wide, 
Where independent thought had died. 
Newspeak choked the rebel tongue, 
And every sun...
