The Bitter Suite VI: Abandon

Strangers in the soil

So hide your enmity

Are you living up to ghosts or

Does virtue disagree?

(ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

Use your gifts for good

Rescue them from greed

Find a proper voice

As the thistle in the wreath

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

Move them to Truth

Far from ruin

Barricade the myth I made the wolves at bay

I know that History fades

And sympathy dithers away

The city's son living under my thumb

You couldn't compromise

So keep playing with fire

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-oooooh)

Move them to truth

Far from ruin

Barricade the myth I made the wolves at bay

I know that history fades

And sympathy dithers away
