The script was written
long ago
with an apple bitten
so we’d never know
that the truth was in us
all along
but they stole our solstice
and silenced our song
and said the devil made us dance
and if we pray to their God
we might have a chance
but the seasons kept us sane
as their God brought war
our mother brought rain
so that seeds of love might grow
now we welcome spring
through the melting snow.
