Land Before Time

In a land before time
Where the midnight sun
Is a fact life;
Where beauty lies in rarity
And ability;
Where life is cherished
And contemplated;
Where each cold breath
Is taken in with care --
Comfort --
Understanding...

In a land before the commonplace lie

And the righteous deceit of casual living --
We break apart our own paths and destiny.
In a land which begs for our determination.
We used to be free to roam and choose.
We used to own ourselves.
We used to be whole.
