You measured your debts, counting them out,
You measured your debts, each counted out,
What had we hoped for, waiting this day?
You measured your debts, counting them out.
The day of union, so fleeting and brief,
The day of union, a moment so brief,
Days were all counted, anticipating this,
Days were all counted, awaiting this day,
You measured your debts, counting them out.
They do not listen, what can we do?
They do not listen, what can we do?
We pray for those, for whom we entreat,
We pray for those, for whom we entreat,
You measured your debts, counting them out.
If you care not for those who love you,
If you care not for those who love you,
Then for whom, were you even made?
Then for whom, were you even made?
You measured your debts, counting them out.
Gardener, tend the pale, soft blooms,
Gardener, tend the pale, soft blooms,
Send them to one, so young and pure,
Send them to one, so young and pure,
You measured your debts, counting them out.
What had we hoped for, waiting this day?
You measured your debts, counting them out.
You measured your debts, counting them out.
