heart piercing screams surround us
   boom-box cracking ear drums
   bombs bursting dawns
   blue light specials in every store
violins crying "God AllMighty Why"
   tune tugging heart strings
   lay down your weapons
   burn your toys of war
horns blasting "up and at ya"
   wake up and dance
   take hold of yourself
   play your own song
pianos will tinkle and thunder
   at the same time or not
   touching every string of a heart
   to heal and mend and soar again

and the music plays
