Come softly, stranger Step inside the light Here is home of a sort Here is nowhere else to go Such staggering ambiguity Such all-consuming cruelty I see it all so clearly now Wide-eyed and unheeding Unaware of double-dealing I was an innocent And then I was born Wise to the lies of the womb And with a grudge for being disturbed By Phil Roberts

INTRODUCING
Come softly, stranger Step inside the light Here is home of a sort Here is nowhere else to go Such staggering ambiguity Such all-consuming cruelty I see it all so clearly now Wide-eyed and unheeding Unaware of double-dealing I was an innocent And then I was born Wise to the lies of the womb And with a grudge for being disturbed By Phil Roberts
