Die Together, Thrive Alone
We'd die together
or thrive alone
Too often silence is violent
With words we kept and didn't say
roads were paved leading separate ways
We paid for the work with a weight of fears
Signed our signatures with quieted tears
Years have come
Years have gone
we fell to find we don't belong
We'd die together
or thrive alone
The empire's rule expired..
still a tune of triumph sung...
We'd die together
or thrive alone
With our last breath's exhale
a fruitful journey begun
or thrive alone
Too often silence is violent
With words we kept and didn't say
roads were paved leading separate ways
We paid for the work with a weight of fears
Signed our signatures with quieted tears
Years have come
Years have gone
we fell to find we don't belong
We'd die together
or thrive alone
The empire's rule expired..
still a tune of triumph sung...
We'd die together
or thrive alone
With our last breath's exhale
a fruitful journey begun
