A5                                A5                  A5
Martin was bright as he stood up and sang in the choir
A5                                      A5                  A5
His hearts all in pieces, was breaking, his head was on fire
C5                                                                    A5
They took him from that place and they buried him deep in the ground
A5                C5                A5
Out with the light, quiet the sound


A5                C5                       A5
Its a slow revolution that quietly turns
         C5              A5
As the true word burns
     A5                                                     A5
And all of the people marching together out cross the floor
     A5                   C5                   A5
And all that was after is now as it was before

Sylvia sat staring out into the depths of her room
Moment of light from her brain cut through the dark, pierced the gloom
Children voices were music, cam faint through the wall
From such a great height she looked down, there was only the fall
And its a slow revolution that quietly turns
As the true word burns
And all of the people stomping out cross the floor
All that was after is now as it was before

So look at the shadows bent forward trying to break through the night
Huddled against the darkness, so close to the light
My voice is breaking out here in this wilderness
For I see a time that is coming, I see a time of change
Sun is burning the deserts, but waters filling the plains
Noahs chipping crazily away at his ark
While all of us ready ourselves to go into the dark
Its a slow revolution that quietly turns
As the true word burns
Yeah the true word burns
And all of the people marching dancing out cross the floor
And all of this matter soon wont matter much anymore
