as I walk the night
cry my tearless cries
if I may I just might
deny my soulless lies
...
plant no rose on me
sing no songs for me
be just the green grass
and cover me
...
the road is like the first step
the step like the road itself.
fear not if you pass through
dark forests.
...
Love is burrying with no mourning
Love is keeping with no holding
Love is bearing with no birthing
...
Ye see, my brethren, with your eyes, what we are
Behold, we are dust and ashes.
Shadows on a cave-wall
Cave-shadows when we die.
...
We put our parents into graves
And lied to our own children
We drove away all our kings
To get on better without them
...
As Herod the Great
King of Judea heard
What the magi from distand land
Said about Israel's new ruler
...
