Fault Lines

Verse 1: I heard a whisper on the waves From across the galaxy A tyrant dashed children on the rocks, I heard a rumor Of genocide so far away

Verse 3:
I heard of dissidents detained
Their bones and flesh locked in a vice
I heard the crackle as their bodies break, just a whisper
Of autumn leaves across the way

I'm afraid the first verse's line breaks didn't make it past the preview into the final post, but here it is with linebreaks:

Verse 1:
I heard a whisper on the waves
From across the galaxy
A tyrant dashed children on the rocks, I heard a rumor
Of genocide so far away

I dig the sounds, and the space, and the dirt. Nice.
