Part I I will be the viscious Tread untrodden snow But still I am helpless Still I yearn to grow I will live abolished Turn the unturned stone But still I am helpless Still I yearn to grow I have grown slowly I have learned what is right I have learned who is guilty What is day and what is night I have thoughts But not power I have soil But no seed I have meat and a garden But no teeth The wheels of time turning slowly Still the wings of next year unfold The inner eye seeing nothing The scars rain me to mold I can't walk or seek justice I can't remove the thorn Nor had I any expectation That I would be reborn
