Answers - 祖堅正慶 (そけん まさよし)

I close my eyes tell us why must we suffer

Release your hands for your will drags us under

My legs grow tired tell us where must we wander

How can we carry on if redemption's beyond us

To all of my children in whom life flows abundant

To all of my children to whom death hath passed his judgement

The soul yearns for honor and the flesh the hereafter

Look to those who walked before to lead those who walk after

Shining is the land's light of justice

Ever flows the land's well of purpose

Walk free walk free walk free believe

The land is alive so believe

Sleep

Answer

Sleep on

Now open your eyes while our plight is repeated

Still deaf to our cries lost in hope we lie defeated

Our souls have been torn and our bodies forsaken

Bearing sins of the past for our future is taken

War born of strife these trials persuade us not

Feel what

Learn what

Words without sound these lies betray our thoughts

Mired by a plague of doubt the land she mourns

See what

Hear what

Judgement binds all we hold to a memory of scorn

Tell us why given life we are meant to die helpless in our cries

Answer together

Thy life is a riddle to bear rapture and sorrow

To listen to suffer to entrust unto tomorrow

In one fleeting moment from the land doth life flow

Yet in one fleeting moment for anew it doth grow

In the same fleeting moment thou must live die and know
