Through to
the other side
Look me in the face dear,
Try to stare me down,
Have we really been so queer
Doing what we have done?
I find our old saw story
Searing pages worldwide;
Where many gave up glory
To fury acidified.
Most succumb and go away,
Empty as a hollow glove
Abandoned at a grave one day,
Suspicious that they ever loved.
Those few who survive,
Once knocked back on their heels,
End up more alive
Bound tight in bands of steel.
So look me in the face dear,
And try to smile me down,
For we really have no peer
Who knows what we have won.
