Hurt by the stone

Hurled from a throne

Left on one's own

Afar from the known


A great wide view

Of the grey and blue

Unseen to you

Evermore, it is true


Backup, you need it

Ground, you cede it

Advice, you heed it

Honesty, you bleed it


Erased from the board

Escaped from the hoard

To hit one last chord

Before it's assured


Traffic, you hear it

Camera, you're near it

Public, you fear it

Private, you smear it


Truth out of sight

Lies multiplied by might

A group in the light

Backup tonight
