LA PLUS ÇA CHANGE
(sundogs / metamorphosis)
(portent of change / illusion of change)
We came for salvation
we came to escape
(intolerance ignorance
poverty and disease)
we came to save
but lost the refuge we had gained
we came to teach
but we have come to learn
that though we came to sow
we now have come to reap
the wages
of harbouring our own
(intolerance and ignorance)
and have cast a net of
(poverty and disease)
with such speed and ease
we blame it on the pavement
of the road to hell.
