Then we would close our eyes
and shun disquiet sound
this whole nintendo generation balks
at the commited vow
then we would sleep through days
then we won't ever change
or then we could hold fire
and then we could sluice ash
and with the knowledge of
taken to such ends
could awaken cities whole
if we would burden weight
then we could garner change
it's not such to fake it
and woolen eyes
we wont ever lead them on
and with those words sincerest
that move mountains whole
we would ever cheer them on
