princess among provinces - so long forgotten lyrics

the sun sets pink, yellow, glorious
shined on that city always reverent on its hill
but either we are too close or too great a distance
to see its foundations giving way
its plants full of decay

but i could see, i could see, i could surely see
that crippled man every morning
hungry, drunk, and homeless on my street
and i could hear, i could hear, i could surely hear
a thousand thirsty people calling
(but i will never be that crutch or that drink)

but if we rape and pillage the earth, take it for all that it’s worth and ring religion’s salvation bell
the sick and imprisoned will find liberation in robes and winе
and a h*ll far worse than the onе where they dwell

and i think i burnt my hands giving out fire and calling it a lamb
i gave armies swords to k!ll, an empire to build
and that solid crown, that mighty tower, i pray that it falls down
and it crushes me like a mustard seed and spreads me out
a field white for harvest

and i smell the stench of a million men, headed in my direction
and i hear the sound of their boots on the ground
let’s plow the field with their weapons
or just leave, let’s scale those walls, and just leave, we’ll just leave but who holds and cradles the earth, and gives every bit of it’s worth?
who raises us along with the dead?
the sick and imprisoned will find men’s systems won’t keep them and they will have liberation in the end!
