It is said 
we need protected.
A righteous (wo)man will do.
Across the sea comes fury 
from them.

It is said 
they need protected.
A righteous (wo)man will do. 
Across the sea comes fury 
from us.

All our eyes wide and waxed with water,
clutching love close and caged
while righteous men and women laugh above our heads.
Counting coins. 
Contriving dread.

These are (wo)men of fear.
