And I saw stripes - in black and white
A prison in code.
The captive marched on -
Blisters on their soles
Blisters on their souls
Static echoed the concrete halls
Static rang from each corner
The captive chanted on -
The voices aweful
The noises awful.
And I etched hope at the door
And journeyed home to kneel
Till the battle is one --
Till the battle is won.
