<\/a><\/p>\nFrom what I could gather, the sunset had disappeared
\nNo golden slivers shaking across the depths
\nThe makers of the moon had taken it all away<\/p>\n
There was a mystery to the inquisitive
\nThey stalled on the spot, squinted to the sky
\nEyes turning amber
\nEnthralled<\/p>\n
And the sea laid at rest, no audience to this spartan crowd
\nYet they still came
\nStood on the port side, feet swaying
\nChattering mouths from a churlish wind
\nDabbling with unspoken glances to that orb in the sky<\/p>\n
Holding down gravity and the pull of darkened waters
\nThe craftsmen
\nGave me a night with my crosses to bear
\nWe were all there
\nLaying forth to the fragments of broken light<\/p>\n
That shatter, with a clatter
\nThat gave way to a fury,
\nA light that couldn’t dim<\/p>\n
So the drums from the beat that the makers were making
\nWas taking
\nEverything away<\/p>\n
So the makers of the moon were dancing with that beat
\nRaising our feet
\nNecking sweet nectar, neat<\/p>\n
They drummed a beat that light couldn’t stop
\nThat the valiant hearts couldn’t top
\nUntil four, when there was only five<\/p>\n
That beat carried on
\nDum dee la dum
\nUntil it echoed off the cliffs<\/p>\n
That beat lives
\nGives
\nUntil the end<\/p>\n
