| [00:27.02] | He stood upon the last |
| [00:29.80] | Bastions of the place |
| [00:32.98] | Looked out on the ruins |
| [00:36.26] | With thunder in his face |
| [00:39.54] | An introverted spectacle |
| [00:42.78] | In the flowers on the rocks |
| [00:46.09] | The daisies on the ramparts |
| [00:49.47] | Blowing free |
| [00:52.78] | His heart was divided |
| [00:55.85] | Clouds gathered in the sky |
| [00:59.22] | The belfry made of wood and steel |
| [01:02.30] | Was silenced in it’s cry |
| [01:05.80] | Something must have happened |
| [01:08.99] | What, he wouldn’t say |
| [01:12.53] | But shown within |
| [01:14.09] | The wider lens of history |
| [01:18.98] | His mission the transmission |
| [01:25.43] | Of technology |
| [01:39.57] | One cannon trained upon the church |
| [01:42.25] | This one caught his eye |
| [01:46.02] | “To keep the bishop in his place” |
| [01:49.14] | He muttered with a sigh |
| [01:52.37] | His mood was melancholy |
| [01:55.42] | His attitude severe |
| [01:59.03] | His inner burden |
| [02:00.89] | Weighed upon him mightily |
| [02:27.12] | A bird as never seen in books |
| [02:29.65] | Flew in overhead |
| [02:32.80] | A kind of dove it might have been |
| [02:36.19] | But not a sound was said |
| [02:39.48] | All the ancient knowledge lay |
| [02:42.73] | In pieces on the ground |
| [02:45.95] | The cause of all his suffering |
| [02:49.30] | Was not for love of me. |
| [02:52.53] | His mission the transmission |
| [02:58.76] | Of technology |
