{Play part II again once for each of the following verses :}

If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one


Drying in the colour of the evening sun
Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away
But something in our minds will always stay

Perhaps this final act was meant to clinch a lifetime's argument


That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could
For all those born beneath an angry star
Lest we forget how fragile we are

Part III

On and on the rain will fall


Like tears from a star like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are how fragile we are
