Kelcut from Red by Red Ankh

Dust settles, nerves ablaze, from the ashes a twisting maze
Where do we go from here?
Ain't got the heart to celebate, quiet now, except the pain
When does the mourning end?
All roads lead to what we've lost, so all roads seen are quite blocked
Where do we go, where can we go?
Will we ever dance again, dare we laugh, dare we imagine?
How does life spark from void?

We will return, homeland
We will fight for romance
We will become, flowing anew
Our new world

Rebuilding is not repeating, but building from the old the new
The old comforts shall not return, but eat of their ashes and sing the truth:
The unknown broke us before, but now we're free to breathe, to choose
Accept the scars, cry out loud, march as one to a glorious tune

Breathe deep down in to a vessel forgotten, a shrine to our pain
Step, reflect, and step, connect, no refrain the same

Gone are the horrors of accumulation wars
We swim the oceans to fantastic shores

You belong here in the dance
Where interuption has no chance
Where when you stumble we roll with you
Where when you fall, numb, we carry you
It starts with trust here, as we provide
Relinquish fear, no need to hide
Our senses are not our suffering
They join, relate us to everything

Drink deep down the streams of unending passion, punishment be done
It was never our fault, we're at the crossroads now, love the crossroads, it's begun

Forget independence, that's how we got here:
Alone, our oppressors projected their fear

Overload sensation to hide, bury the pain, endless celebration to forget all the shame
We don't dance to forget [melodic, long], we dance to live, scream on the floor, tears flow with bliss
Love is not our bandage but the very thing we heal, cut through the layers of meaning straight to the real
You cerebrals, don't think, don't think, don't think, feel

Numbness is not us, but a wall in between
Us and ourselves and the nightmares we've seen
It's what we know, but there's joy in learning more
We swim the oceans to fantastic shores

(Stomp) Embrace difference, (thrash) it needn't make sense
Not yet, (Sway) there's such kindness waiting for you
We feel it too, we were there with you
Let go, know we'll be here to catch you when you fall
Every time you need us
You know we'll be there
Two steps forward, one step back
It's a dance, an adventure, not a test, not a trial
(Twist) Embrace what's exiled, (thrust) honor the guards you've hired
The walls, (Swing) built with a purpose, now gone
We feel it too, we were there with you
Let go, let go, let go, let go
