The sun sank in the tendrils of the winter winds Light quickly faded The long night begins What is our hope for the spring to come beyond this winter? The old rulers are dying, their grasp weakened Their desperate ****** clawing for power falters What will the youth of the world build? Overthrowing the gray tired old men with no vision Will there be a new light glowing in an abandoned barn? An opening of joy to a time of new growth? It is now dark in the cavern The animals have bowed their heads Fearing the burning world that surrounds Glaciers melting, deserts blowing Is there a song that will lead us to A new morning, Sagan's galaxy rise? With a billion suns shining? Or will we crouch in the corners again Fighting for any lethal advantage Sacrificing the world? We should pray

Solstice
The sun sank in the tendrils of the winter winds Light quickly faded The long night begins What is our hope for the spring to come beyond this winter? The old rulers are dying, their grasp weakened Their desperate ****** clawing for power falters What will the youth of the world build? Overthrowing the gray tired old men with no vision Will there be a new light glowing in an abandoned barn? An opening of joy to a time of new growth? It is now dark in the cavern The animals have bowed their heads Fearing the burning world that surrounds Glaciers melting, deserts blowing Is there a song that will lead us to A new morning, Sagan's galaxy rise? With a billion suns shining? Or will we crouch in the corners again Fighting for any lethal advantage Sacrificing the world? We should pray
