Sound

Minneapolis December 2008,
Brussels / DC June 2009;
Quito March 2010
and many other places over years

Light
Looking from Lisbon late at night
And not a guide
Shall you find.

Rise
With a most uncommon life
At the inquiry
Take pride.

Hey sister, if you’re a prisoner
Of a system that tears you down
I’ll be right here, I’ll be right here
With the sound when you hit the ground.

Hey sister, if you’re a prisoner
Making your way out
I’ll be right here, we’ll be right here
With the sound when you hit the ground.

Time
Looking for purpose for our lives
In reports
In the lines.

Strike
With unaverted eyes
Appear at the inquiry
An unquiet mind.

Hey sister, if you’re a prisoner
Of a system that tears you down
I’ll be right here, I’ll be right here
With the sound when you hit the ground.

Hey sister, if you’re a prisoner
Listen and let it out
I’ll be right here, we’ll be right here
With the sound when you hit the ground.
