Did you hear me, my voice just a whisper
Above all the noise of the crowd...

On the edge of a flame she dangles at will
Her ashen throne now empty and still...

Beneath the branches of the palm
On sandy beach thus we lay...

It's the thumping of a heartache,
that gets me every time...

Funny, how she always seems
to laugh and joke among her friends...

When Mary Sue had reached her prime
The lads came quick in double time...

Many miles, between your heart and mine
Though distance twists and turns the hands of time...

Sometimes its all that I can do
To struggle through each day...

Where have you gone, my child
Now I must weep for thee...

If you should go to the zoo on Callivary Square
You'll find an odd assortment of wild life living...

From which direction do they come
And when they fall, where do they land...

In the corner of existence
Lying on the tattered field...
