In a place where the river banks draw near | |
men work a heading to the west. | |
Where streams like giants’ fingers close | |
from the hills to the emptiness beneath, | |
to the depths of the mere. | |
Morning light | |
midwinter sun | |
underneath; | |
the river song. | |
In a place where the river banks draw close | |
men break stone to make new ground. | |
Light and air are hard down deep to find | |
engines work to hold the water back | |
to the edge of the mere. | |
‘Run boys run toward the light; | |
the river’s in, the tunnel’s in’; | |
Here she comes | |
the sleeper wakes, | |
ten thousand years | |
she lay in wait for this. | |
Every night their dreams were filled | |
with the fear of the river breaking in. | |
But this was not a river god, | |
this was something rising from the deep, | |
from the depths of the mere. | |
‘Run boys run make for the light, | |
save yourselves, the tunnel’s in.’ | |
Here he comes | |
the first rebreather, | |
like a mummer, | |
like a souler | |
(come to save them.) | |
Rising up to the height of the river | |
at flood tide. | |
Engines fail, lost to the water | |
as silence falls. | |
This man will walk into darkness, | |
one foot in front of the other, | |
into the unsounded depths | |
of the heading; | |
into the fifth circle of hell, | |
with no light to lead him home, | |
man is all alone at the end. | |
This man will walk into darkness | |
without fear of what lurks in the shadows. | |
Watching the surface grow quite still, | |
waiting for hope at the ninth hour, | |
man all alone in the darkness. | |
Here he comes: | |
the first rebreather. |
In a place where the river banks draw near | |
men work a heading to the west. | |
Where streams like giants' fingers close | |
from the hills to the emptiness beneath, | |
to the depths of the mere. | |
Morning light | |
midwinter sun | |
underneath | |
the river song. | |
In a place where the river banks draw close | |
men break stone to make new ground. | |
Light and air are hard down deep to find | |
engines work to hold the water back | |
to the edge of the mere. | |
' Run boys run toward the light | |
the river' s in, the tunnel' s in' | |
Here she comes | |
the sleeper wakes, | |
ten thousand years | |
she lay in wait for this. | |
Every night their dreams were filled | |
with the fear of the river breaking in. | |
But this was not a river god, | |
this was something rising from the deep, | |
from the depths of the mere. | |
' Run boys run make for the light, | |
save yourselves, the tunnel' s in.' | |
Here he comes | |
