Not just you, but the world turns away,
Not just you, who harbors such dismay.
The stone I sculpted, now a god, they say,
Not just you, but the world turns away.
If the goal would rise and greet my quest,
If the goal would rise and greet my quest,
My longing feet, now blistered, know no rest.
My longing feet, now blistered, know no rest.
Not just you, but the world turns away,
The stone I sculpted, now a god, they say,
Not just you, but the world turns away.
Prudence has stolen speech, the voice now lost,
Prudence has stolen speech, the voice now lost,
Yet silence, now, becomes my truest cost.
Yet silence, now, becomes my truest cost.
Not just you, but the world turns away,
The stone I sculpted, now a god, they say,
Not just you, but the world turns away.
Thank you, my killer, my healer, true,
Thank you, my killer, my healer, true,
The poison you gave, now medicine anew.
The poison you gave, now medicine anew.
Not just you, but the world turns away,
Not just you, but the world turns away.
Shahzad's soul, deemed enemy and foe,
Shahzad's soul, deemed enemy and foe,
A cry arose, the spirit starts to go.
A cry arose, the spirit starts to go.
Not just you, but the world turns away,
The stone I sculpted, now a god, they say,
Not just you, but the world turns away.
