The winter bathes in nectar,
now that spring is lost,
play me down, down now,
beneath the biting frost,
stark magpie chants the sonnet,
counting crows the cost,
show me now, how now,
everything is lost,
riven steeples whisper dirges,
inspiration tossed,
show me how, now how,
we built this holocaust.
blind children hide in silence,
destiny's swift riposte,
wear your crown, proud now,
whilst watching from your cross.
