Sad Dance

So many new souls just being born

You are the only one who gave a damn

You could be homeless

You could be proud

There will be aftershocks

All through the town

Carved out of old wood

Appears a face

The eyes speak of old worlds

The tongue of our fate

Some things are clear now

A wisdom is found

There will be aftershocks

Eternal, profound

So many pieces thrown through the storm

But you were the only one who gave a damn

You're waiting for signs now

An ear to the ground

There will be aftershocks all through the town

They're awake
