The sky was dark with dust
Like a night of ever doom
The earth rose, as if to meet heaven
to leave us here in eternal hell
All that died remained
And all that lived, died
Balance meant nothing more than price
And price rose with the dust
Man on his knees
A woman to carry him
He tried to go to the beginning again
Before mistakes, in a warm womb
She knew of good and evil
But she had one rib cage,
And it did not carry a heart
She had no saviour now
The dust continued to lift
And clay was broken down
To become part of the dark
All earthly bones disseminated
The flower shut
The leaf fell
The wind sped
The ice formed
The last eye rolled away
The last beat heart came
We knew it would happen one day
We knew we were to blame
