Our Twist of Fate

Speed up my dear bird and run
There will be no need to fly
Danger stalks us one by one
When fate refuses to die.
This earth is not a safe place
Some don’t make it out of here
Fly my dear wing, lift and fly!

Wake up, my dear child. Wake up
This has happened in your sleep;
You were merry, so happy
We found you at the wedding
Proud bride and groom unready
Do not slumber this early
Remain wide-eyed to fight fate.

Grow on these fields lovely seeds
Before you wane and wither.
Time has become sober now
Grow like a heated temper.
If it hurts, it hurts to heal
If it twists, it’s fate for real
If it’s fire, let it burn still.

Oh silence, my little mouse
Scurry, get inside your hole.
Be wary of the wild cat
Put an end to this patrol.
It’s my job to keep you safe
But only if you agree.
To friendship voluntary.

You were merry, unhappy;
Proud bride and groom unready
Time can become sober now
But only if you agree.
This earth is not a safe place
Danger stalks us one by one
Remain wide-eyed or lose faith.
