(They are brought out to their execution, cue spotlight as the people watch in silence)
Free the world from a pastime that haunts us,
Cry for its liberty and strength to stop the bloodlust.
A rageful etiquette and a grim sanction,
A nerve-shattering future, leery and anxious.
(The people become restless)
-
And I believe in a summer of green,
I believe in a glass fountain of dreams.
That pours your heart away,
To take away the darkness for another day.
-
Sometimes the world becomes black and pink.
Great storms striking ships that to the deep they sink,
To the bottom of the ocean where the fish
Chew on your remains,
To the edge of a golden coast,
Where the great mermaids once reigned.
-
See the rising sun and midnight stars,
To awash a history full of scars.
Scrub away the bloody stains,
Feel the beautiful rush of rain.
(They start crying)
-
Dance beneath the dawning light.
Feel the world's greatest might,
To love so deeply and fly so high,
Never give up, always try.
(They raise their hands as if toward the heavens)
-
I can see our future.
I can see our destiny.
To save us all, a magnificent creature (The people violently cry fellony!)
Of heavenly angelity.
(The people start to circle tighter around them and a rope is brought out)
-
So maybe not,
So maybe love in fear.
See what fate brought,
Weep all your tears.
-
Break for the east,
Run along the coast.
Fast as you can,
Try to escape God's PLAN.
-
(The people wrap their noose around their neck and bring them down to their knees on the podium, defeated and ready for death)
(Quietly) So don't forget me.
Don't forget.
Don't forget––please,
Only regrets.
(The noose snaps)
