["Her world collapsed early Sunday morning","She got up from the kitchen table","Those creatures jumped the barricades","Her world collapsed early Sunday morning","And have headed for the sea, she began to breathe","She stood and whispered to her child, belong","Stood and whispered to her child, belong","She took the child held tight opened the window","To breathe at the thought of this freedom","And have headed for the sea, sea","","","She held the child and whispered with calm, calm, belong","","And knew, knew, belong","A breath, this song, how long","Those creatures jumped the barricades","Folded the newspaper and silenced the radio","Those barricades can only hold for so long","She held the child and whispered with calm, calm, belong"]
