She'd said take it where it leads you.
She'd said nothing else is true.
She'd said drop it if it leaves you,
leaves you living in the blue.
But in the light of all that happened now
she saw her thoughts had been inadequate.
If only off by a little bit,
still it left her here like this.
They said her world had ended.
Said there was nothing she could do.
Said that the god she had befriended
was a god with a massive point to prove.
And seeing now that it went the way it did
she cursed her god with the words she knew he hated.
She cursed her god with everything she had,
with what he left her with.
She'd said...
Blue as the fire of oxygen,
he remembered when it wasn't so,
so hard to be a dissident,
indifferent to the ebb and flow.
