Revolution

Farewell reign of anguish
The flowers beneath your feet lay trampled and blown

The times that I laid beside you

Are gone like a thousand years in a guillotine’s stroke
Stare out in silence

…is all I can dare

The revolution dances

Around this heart I bare

Dark nights and haunted dreams

Lay slain around your throne with their banners torn

Wounded and hardly breathing

The diamonds and emeralds kept will be locked and spared

Stare out in silence

…is all I can dare

The revolution dances

Around this heart I bare
