The compass needle points North
Leading the Believer on his journey
And no matter how much Satan tries
To make it waver or point South
It must always return home.
The compass needle has been yanked
By men hoping to defeat nature
They tire, fall in despair and let go
The needle resolute issues its tireless call
The Believers pray a thanks Heavenwards
They begin the long trudge home again.
Long have people in power attempted to wrest control and pervert the natural course of progress. They must, at some point, fall. This was written primarily about the Suharto regime, but there are quite a few people who come to mind!
Written to "Sunset Di Tanah Anarki" by Superman Is Dead and "Auferstanden Aus Ruinen" ("Risen From The Ruins"), the national anthem of East Germany.
