The lights of the ashes smoulder through hills and vales,
Nostalgia burns in the hearts of the strongest,
Picasso is painting the ships in the harbour, the wind--- and----- sails,
These are years... with a genius------ for living!
The rope is cut, the rabbit is loose,
(Fire at will in this open sea - son!)
The blood of a poet, the ink in the well!
(It's all written down in this age-- of rea - son!)

The animals run through harvested fields of fire,
The bitterness shown in the face of the homeless,
Picasso is painting the flames from the houses, the sudden---- rain----,
These are years... with a genius------ for living!
The rope is cut, the rabbit is loose,
(Fire at will in this open sea - son!)
The blood of a poet, the ink in the well!
(It's all written down in this age-- of rea - son!)
