Dawn is approaching. Bats are returning
carrying smells of burning in their tiny little hairs.
Men are amassing at the city's center
channeling their hopes for worlds without war.
Energy focused, the hunger of locusts
the wisdom of man is the strength of the gods.
Without men who would carry out deeds of injustice
the gods of indecency don't stand a chance.
Without men to open the bottomless pit
the bottomless pit is a powerless myth.
The power of everything rests on the backs
of the men who would carry out deeds of another.
Dawn...
All we are we give to this.
grant us now our final wish.
Mother save us from our brothers.
Dawn...
