blessed from below

salvation: a merciless hand from below

holding the melancholy

of a million strangled souls

so warm and glorious

embraced in a black mass

a mass which holds

the pain of oppression

so warm and glorious

embraced in a black mass

a mass which holds

the pain of oppression

i'll reach out for that salvation hand

and accept its shining blessing

so that i can bear their pain and longing
