(14) FATHER?
(15) ARE BOTH OF YOU
(16) GONE NOW FOREVER?
(17) I SAW YOU THERE,
(18) LIKE BROTHER AND BROTHER
(19) AND, FOR ALL YOUR WORDS,
(20) YOU COULD NOT KILL EACH OTHER.
(21) A FATHER,
(22) A LOVER.

(25) AND ON A NIGHT SO COLD,
(26) SO FULL OF HOPES AND PAIN,
(27) CAN OUR WORLD BE CHANGED?
(28) CAN OUR WORLD BE CHANGED?
(29) AND WITH A FIGHT SO BOLD,
