lyrics

Always the gentlest of men
True to your word and regimen
Loved in your way
Loved in your solid, silent way

The light-hearted comrade you were not
Marching in circles, lost in thought
What stole the voice?
What stole the voice and made you stone?

Now from across the country
I open my heart to strangers
Adopting the pain imagined
Staring you down
Wearing you down
Tearing you down
My story of you

Left in the vessel all alone
Three little children on their own
Speak for you now
Speak of the memory of it

Harder to see than to believe
Living repeated history
With faith in a soul
Faith in survival of it

Walking the mother country
I see your face in strangers
Adopting the life imagined
Racing me now
Tracing me now
Facing me now
My story of you
