The Time We Tried To Live
The time we tried to live
The time we tried to live
Was an audacious act
Was an audacious act
That the rich did not find so adoring
That the rich did not find so adoring
As to us they’d rather crush under feet
As to us they’d rather crush under feet
Than be meek and humble to another
Than be meek and humble to another
To care after humanity,
To care after humanity,
Sharing dragon’s hoarde-
Sharing dragon’s hoarde-
How ghastly that we dare request,
How ghastly that we dare request,
As if necessity, the need to love each other
As if necessity, the need to love each other
Before the earth alone heeds her breadth
Before the earth alone heeds her breadth
Through toil
Through toil
To breathe no more
To breathe no more
