about

lyrics

(father) -
"We didn't know it would be our erasure
We had him stoned, the last child of all nations."

(son)
"From that broken bodies beaten head
grew the tree of the masses,
memory's raging theatre of the dead,
sandpiles and churches..."

"You who stand firm, a still noise awaits you
Soon you'll hear the words whose voices escape you."

"From the painted palm of Anu's hand
the last pearls of wisdom
slipped through fingers toward the raging sea,
falling in rhythm..."

"Now must you go to see your own making
finally I've heard the last silence breaking"

"I remember, Father, where you were
when twilight was glistening;
When the waves remember what you heard,
I'll be here listening..."
