For The Greater Good

The wind stopped blowing in his heart
He gave his life for human kind
There’ll be no shadows anymore
You can presume he hides inside

But do they know the sacrifice?

The water frozen on the ground
No more in waves he will return
This certain drop that will be missed
By every creature of the ocean

But do they know the sacrifice?

His body lies beside his foe’s
An honour for the greater ones
To keep his memory alive
The earth will hum and quake in songs

But do they know the sacrifice?

The fire stopped lighting his eyes
He left the burning underground
And never got to see his dream
He died for bringing peace around

But do they know the sacrifice?

The astrologer spent his life
Inside a temple they forgot
So many years lived alone
With no one he could share a walk

But do they know the sacrifice?

They put aside their sacred love
For us to have our precious flow
And now they run to catch a sight
One of each other as they go

But do they know the sacrifice?
