Our words were free of concern
Our reluctance was meek
As we raged
All through the dusk

We sang our kindred concerns
A heartfelt verse
Unyielding
Untiring and pure

To pause was sacrilege
We breathed in haste
To the tune
Of our trembling joy

Mad
Became the docile night
So choked with elation
Its swerve
And merciless climb
