Far, far away


Far away
I heard humanity crack
Bombs bloomed
Sense swooned
Enemies were done
People on the run
Winners groomed losers doomed
Under the indulgent sun
On the same track

Far away
I heard humanity crack
Mouths starving
Crops growing
Ribs and bones showing
Paddy fields yielding
In the air there was fun
Under the same indulgent sun
On the same track

Far away
I heard humanity crack
Moaners moaning
Leaders grinning
Candles burning
Guns and weapons shouting
The whole nation in unison
Under the same indulgent sun
On the same track


Far, far away
There is no other way
The mind cannot escape
From fighting in the gape
Of crushing, smashing
Defeating, losing, snatching
Same song singing
No display of the play unsung

Under the same enlightened sun
