Careworn and all alone - First days

Charon the unborn - Days erased

Death: Venus unfurled -

The world we lost we found - spoiled

No sun, no birds, no stars, no form

Evened we are fallen all before time

Lief lorn we unlearn all crime

Lives - levelled as lies

A star mourns souls ungraved - ignored

Slow wheels: Mira. Algol. Maia

Rose Dawn Daemon Rise Up

And seize the morning - your due

Love solves worlds - with words

Arise Amidnight and heaven

Stumbles - as time ends

Last days hollow souls view

Glass maze a science sees us through

History moulds men

Selves men made

Its tyrannies end when

Its ghosts are laid

Dark Class marches past to war

Class cause carries all before

Capital steals Fire

Fools no more

His factories free dreams

His Kings expire

Rose Dawn Day Moon

Take Care! Banners of Crimson

Are raised

Time solves words - by deeds

Arise work men and seize

The future. Let Ends Begin
