LYRICS :
I wish to thank you for the ride on that train.
For there, in the dark, while my mind was still sane,
I found that by holding another by the hand,
You can increase the size of the heart of a man.

The sound of the whistle still echoing in my brain,
I thought to myself what, of these last breaths of horror, will remain?
When a piercing light, which shone through the tiniest slot,
Was made into an altar by me and my gathering lot.

I saw what no witness could ever describe,
Nor no man’s riches ever come to bribe,
The eyes on that little girl’s face, you see,
This child you call by her race, between you and me.

From mocking a frock and a funny haircut,
Soon you’d spit on my suit, say my accent was rude.
While God gave us a nose to smell the fair rose,
You stuck it in dirt till you knew it would hurt.

The soles of my shoes, they were used to the bone,
From kneeling and wailing in front of a wall made of stone.
While the shiniest boots stepped over our mass,
Cleansing themselves from society’s crass.

As we entered the gates, looking down from your crane,
Slowly, joyfully, you turned on death’s rain.
Well, the voices you heard and thought of as pain,
It was just me humming away this refrain.

When my hand can no longer alone
Carry a star the weight of a stone,
You can take the six lines that account for my sorrows,
And out of them make yourself a bundle of arrows.

My mighty star, my shining star, will tear open my heart
For you to play with it a nice game of darts.
But whether or not I fail as your target,
You will be made never to forget.
