Cotton Strands
Ten fierce soldiers
Marched through the driving rain
Hearts set on bloody vengeance
Without a face or name
They had poison on their breath
Saw him walking,
Encircled him like prey,
Left him in oil and blood and tears
Till darkness turned to day
Does this satisfy your hunger then my friends?
Over and over the thread never unwinds
Multi-coloured cotton strands are looped and intertwined
What kind of answers did you expect to find?
Early woken
By voices in the wire
Body broken
The pieces in the fire
And you tend the embers still
Over and over the thread never unwinds
Multi-coloured cotton strands are looped and intertwined
What kind of answers did you expect to find
