Burns Convertino[00:00:05]

The plaza in the village[00:00:06]

Where mission bells used to ring[00:00:10]

Is now crumbled to a pile of stench and ruin[00:00:15]

Even the swallows have vanished[00:00:26]

No longer return every spring[00:00:30]

All the blossoms are buried[00:00:35]

'neath the waste[00:00:40]

Out of the shadows grow hatred[00:00:46]

Along the corrider crawls fear[00:00:50]

Crushed by the promise of hope[00:00:55]

That never returned[00:00:59]

Watched with a hawk's trained eye[00:01:05]

The trees grow silent fruit[00:01:10]

'neath a suffering sky[00:01:20]

Those who have stayed keep a flame[00:01:29]

In memory of the fallen[00:01:35]

And pass on the old rites despite the risk[00:01:40]

But many more have left here[00:01:52]

On mended broken wings[00:02:00]

Turn to see your reaction[00:02:06]

A tear drop fills your eye[00:02:11]

But you protest not to give up or give in[00:02:16]

Heading straight for the wreckage[00:02:26]

Picking up a shovel and a h*e[00:02:30]

Start putting back the bricks one by one[00:02:36]

Numbers come out of the woodwork[00:02:46]

Curious to see the rebirth[00:02:51]

Above the swollen clouds[00:02:55]

A strange sound fills the air[00:03:00]

A silence never heard[00:03:11]

Falling like blessed rain[00:03:20]

And the swallows return[00:03:27]

As the mission bells ring[00:03:31]
