2. Carried away

The decision was made a little time past
We agonised and we let it go
Outside’s a blur as the stations are passed
We let it be, we let it be so

From place to place we are faithlessly led
Time and the places interflow
Marked out in milestones wreathed in regret
We let it be, we let it be so

Held by events
Constrained intense
As forth from hence
We are carried away
Onward propelled
Within withheld
Where once we rebelled
We are carried away

Caught in our corner the stops are pulled out
Brakes sing out loud of all our woe
Angels are silenced as groan becomes shout
We let it be, we let it be so

Wrapped up in hiding the rapture intense
Was broken out by an unforeseen foe
Forced into daylight let battle commence
We let it be, we let it be so

Wheels within wheels
Deals within deals
And with our ideals
We are carried away
