I was there

So they say and so and so
I was there

So they came to stand
and stand
and stand
I was there

And so they poured it
and cracked
and cracked
like that
I was there

But no abberation
and so it never paused and so
more--like that
I was there

The spirit that perpetuates
darkness and our doom and so
and so we are brats?
I was there

And so they labelled us, me
just an expression
and so
and so
and so
and yet: I was there.
