So as the ashes do fall
the sons and daughters all
Those who stood their ground
So as the flares did light
The blackened night sky
Their breath made no sound
Unspoken love
Unruly truths
Flickering in the flame
The blood runs red
Falls on her chest
As the ocean sprays
If I was to show
A thousand years ago
The holy ghost said I'd find fame
She and I
From different times
Spirits meant to align
In my dreams
I hear her call to me
Save me from my fate
I run and I try
But I always arrive
Half a second too late
As she fades
A locket remains
On a rusty red chain
As she fades
I stand where she laid
Lady Zola was her name.
