With all its harmonies
And dissonance it plays on,
Never ceasing, never yielding.
One can close his eyes against it
And feel its force, strong and uncompromised.
The sound swells and builds and grows,
Moving mountains, bringing cities to their knees.
It is a scream, echoed in the voices of the people.
With all its harmonies
And dissonance it plays on,
Never ceasing, never yielding.
And then, this incomparable force gives way
To the most frightening sound of all:
Silence.
It all fades away
And all that’s left
Is silence.
