Hereafter Lyrics

quiver and tremble
the ties of blood are
rotting away
rising from our slumber
to end these walls
this is the time and place

outcast and homeless (you and I)
beyond the fences
of enclosure

brother, sister
in dispossesion
we all stand together

hereafter tied
with totalizing
binds
side by side
our fates
cannot be divided
by their borders
we are all outsiders here
leave ignorance
in ruin
break ranks
like sugar glass

together we breathe
together we fear
together we awake
the passion in one anothers' eyes

_____

hereafter tied
with a single thread
of cordage
side by side
common dreamers
we cannot be bound
within their confines
we are outsiders here
we are indivisible
break down
the barricades
elaborate forever
in the now
we will shine
even as the ravens
and the vultures
fade
into
night.
