from afar
we watch the implosion,
some regard as revolution
others desecration
from afar we watch
the unravelling
the words spooling
upon the floor
we watch sparks fly, hopes die
we watch tears fall, ruck and maul
we watch, disbelief, horror, jubilation
we watch this divided nation..
we watch and pray, we watch and pray
this is the view from far, far away...

we watch, disbelief, horror, jubilation
we watch this divided nation..
we watch and pray, we watch and pray
