Son Lux - Ransom

What wish will ransom me unbury violently
All innocents, all innocents?
Lanterns illumine me burning the memory
Rise innocent, rise innocent

What rage will usher me swallow the enemy
Buy innocence, buy innocence?
Lanterns illumine me incense from memory
Rise innocent, rise innocent

Or is the long war won? The army in me gone
Overrun? To heal this violent son
A breath from one last lung overcomes

Pull out the song from every
Open mouth at once the lantern tongues!
Pull out the song from every
Open mouth at once the lantern tongues!
And I will hear the song
In every heart at once the roaring drums
The harlot and the priest
The prophet and the thief
Up from their knees
In all their open mouths I
See the lantern tongues light up at once
In all their open mouths I
See the lantern tongues light up at once

What wish will ransom me unbury violently
All innocents, all innocents?
Lanterns illumine me burning the memory
Rise innocent, rise innocent

What rage will usher me swallow the enemy
Buy innocence, buy innocence?
Lanterns illumine me incense from memory
Rise innocent, rise innocent
